@HomeHemodialys1 @kidney_boy @tommuellerX Get rid of kt/v as a metric of adequacy

@KatieKwonMD Do you think it leads to note bloat- i used it and found my notes got really long with not very useful information for the referring physician 🤔 have stopped using it

@kidney_boy @VladoPerkovic How do GLP 1ra protect the kidneys? What is the mechanism of this effect?

This is Preetismita Bhoi from India. She is 16yo and just set a World record in Youth World Weightlifting Championships and won a gold for🇮🇳 . There is no news talking about her.
She doesn't have an Instagram profile or a wikipedia page. Search her name on Google and you will not find much about her. She won a gold medal with total lift of 133kg in Women's 40kg category.

The silver medal was also won by an Indian, Jyoshna Sabar with a total lift of 125 kg in the same category.

While most people in the country are discussing what cricketers should and shouldn't do in IPL. Some of our other athletes are doing their work without having expectations of people talking about them.

Maybe we should talk about them. I will.
And if you care, you should too.

@exiliadoprocaz @DrDanMO Now that would be a dream come true !! 😁😁

[Abhijeet Goyal @Kidney_dude]

@sarahkmels it goes back to NCDS study published in 1980/81. Things really changed once achieving a particular kt/v value was deemed to signify sufficient dialysis. This blogpost by Dr John Agar is very apt https://t.co/j58vYwXECy

@DrDanMO @tommuellerX Not to mention “de novo membranous nephropathy”

@DailyHemo @nephondemand While it may not have been called apartheid, the British were no less racist when ruling india. I recommend mj Akbar’s brilliant book on this topic https://t.co/1dszdaeVMl

@VijayanMD @eric_weinhandl @jmteakell @kidney_boy @NephJC I have always wondered about this.. optimal for pts or optimal for the “value” based company? 🤔🤔

In 1995, 14 wolves were released in Yellowstone National Park. No one expected the miracle that the wolves would bring

@SBansalNeph @ASNKidney @nkf Semaglutide causes a loss in muscle mass as well that could result in ‘maintenance’ of egfr. Hopefully the paper will give us more information. https://t.co/FwB0oEImNN

[Abhijeet Goyal @Kidney_dude]

@hswapnil @NDTsocial This is awesome news; however
Does the “e”gfr change/not change just with weight loss?

[Abhijeet Goyal @Kidney_dude]

@manasib33 Is the pt already on RAS- if bp allows ?

[Abhijeet Goyal @Kidney_dude]

@pranavgarimella Awesome! I will look up this one

[Abhijeet Goyal @Kidney_dude]

@pranavgarimella If you are interested in this phase of Indian history, I highly recommend reading INGLORIOUS EMPIRE
what the British did to India by
Shashi Tharoor.. its an awesome read https://t.co/e23jVmA0lA

[Abhijeet Goyal @Kidney_dude]

@DrMootravardhak Agree— same can be said for calcimimetics , esa and now hif inhibitors.. even more .. how do we justify continuing the use of kt/v as a quality measure for dialysis adequacy ?

@NephRodby High BUN is NOT UREMIA!!
