Academic nephrology, gardening, golfing, biking, not necessarily in that order. Always learning.

@kantsmd @NephMadness @AJKDonline Great #NephMadness podcast!, thank you!, 🤓😃🙏 Agreed!, cognitive impairment with CKD undergoing dialysis is understated, 👀👇 Should beat out #POCUS I hope, 😆😃 & AI should beat out IgA region, 😃😆 T-minus 11 days: time to stir up the ol’ #NephMadness pot!, 🍯😃😆😂😂

As someone with kidney disease, the #NephMadness Cerebronephrology Region is like a horror movie. "Cognitive impairment is an underrecognized complication of chronic kidney disease..." ...and a great place to make one's mark on Nephrology. ajkdblog.org/2026/03/01/nep…

This is one of the dumbest posts that I've ever seen. Seriously. Specialization is one of the overwhelming strengths of American medicine.
Wall Street Apes@WallStreetApes

FINALLY someone is saying it out loud Casey Means explains the only reason everyone has to go and see a “specialist” for every single different part of the body now instead of just one doctor is because the medial industrial complex makes more money It’s by design. For profit.

Animal house is back and Dr. Harris is an amazing vet who is running clinical trials to help keep the kidneys in our pets healthy! Are you team cat or team dog? #Nephmadness

@brian_rifkin @NephMadness @brian_rifkin, as your biggest supporter, how could you ever underestimate me? Do a search on #NephPoetry (just click on it). These last two poems are kinda lame compared to some of mine from the past. I even amazed myself as I never got better than a C in english growing up.

Celebrating da beans! 🫘 They keep your blood clean 🧼 , they balance the salt 🧂 and the water won’t halt! 💦 “Oh, the places they’ll go!” cried the Kidney Cat 🐱 too. “From your toes to your nose they clean up for you!” #NephTwitter #NephMadness

Intern: The nephrology consult says to try a higher dose of lasix. Attending: OK, does it say a specific dose or schedule? Intern: 1 gram/24 hours Attending: 🤯🤯🤯 What ⁉️💦💦💦
Yogesh Reddy@yreddyhf

A common Q in acute HF is what dose of diuretic to start with. In this pilot RCT we tested a simpler strategy of just giving 1 gram of lasix over 24 hrs to everyone even if diuretic naive. We saw more urine, lower venous pressure and no drop in CO or gfr doi.org/10.1093/ejhf/x…

@GrahamAbra My guess is that it will be precision medicine guided by histology (activity and chronicity scoring, not Oxford MEST-C ) + simple Biomarkers (hematuria, proteinuria and eGFR). The development of a quantitative ELISA for IgG antibody to gdIgA would be a game changer (like MN).

Finally the pendulum swings back--real doses of loop diuretics😄 watching the argument on rounds about whether to give 10 or 20 of furosemide 🤪
