Dr Sradha Kotwal of @UNSW and @georgeinstitute has developed the Chronic Kidney Disease Adaptive Platform Trial Investigating Various Agents for Therapeutic Effect (CAPTIVATE), aiming to identify an effective drug to prevent CKD progression #KidneyHealthForAll#WorldKidneyDay
Come work with us!
We have an exciting opening for a biostatistician to join the @georgeinstitute's Renal & Metabolic Division
Great opportunity to work on large-scale cardiorenal randomised trials and routinely collected data

Improved uptake of SGLT2i in people with CKD has the potential to substantially reduce the incidence of kidney failure in Australia
Implementation now critical to realising these population level benefits

Latest granular data on CKD trends in Australia
CKD is common & increasing year on year
UACR testing remains abysmally low
Major opportunities for early detection & treatment to prevent cardiovascular & kidney disease

#ICYMI, check out this #ICESKDT study by @_jeffreyha and team that focused on determining the benefit–risk profile of rivaroxaban versus warfarin for atrial fibrillation in patients with #CKD. https://t.co/Jpmc9qGMMR @ICESOntario@MinJun____ 1/
Congratulations to @SradhaKotwal for securing @nhmrc funding to test new treatments in people with #ChronicKidneyDisease at trial centres in Australia & other countries.

The largest & most comprehensive analysis of the association between SGLT2i, blood pressure variability & cardiorenal outcomes
While SGLT2i reduce BP, they have little to no effect on BP variability

Congratulations to Drs Majed Al Jeraisy, Mohammed Tawhari and @Ahmed_Shaman from @kaimrc_ksa for enrolling their FIRST three patients in TRACK. We welcome Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 to the TRACK trial.
Do multifaceted interventions or care bundles reduce #Dialysis catheter related bloodstream infections?
Our researchers @SradhaKotwal and team have published ✍️imp new findings from their @reducction trial today in the @bmj_latest:

Our studies found that as many as 434 million people across Asia could have chronic kidney disease and that it affects women and men differently. Urgent action in Asia is needed to prevent and manage CKD, including equitable policies that address the needs of both women and men
Millions of people with #ChronicKidneyDisease die annually because they cannot afford treatment. New research builds a clearer picture of the growing rates of #KidneyDisease in Asia & how it affects women & men differently. #WorldKidneyDay2022
