So what is the current consensus (if any) on choice of fluids for resusc in sepsis. Balanced vs NS? (TBI not considered). SMART, SALT-ED and the NEJM meta analysis towards balanced vs BaSICS' null findings? Any practice changes? @Kidney_boy @hswapnil #askrenal

A 60yo otherwise healthy woman develops #nephrotic syndrome. Only putative trigger: first vaccination w/ Comirnaty 10 days before.

Biopsy shows IgAN with a podocytopathy resembling #FSGS.

Steroids and CNI are not tolerated.

1) how would you label the disease? Primary or secondary FSGS?
2) next treatment? Ritux?

Please boost even if this isn't for you. On Mastodon, favoriting is not like 'liking' on the other site. All it does is it tell the writer you liked it, there is no algorithm.

I haven't found a calculator for the new EKFC eGFRcr-cys equation online, so I created a Google spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/13up6cndWFe8CVlZ8sWc50TPYzBFsLdbSOlv1SseBSdo/edit?usp=sharing Comments/corrections welcome.

#NephTwitter does anyone send a templated 'dialysis discharge' to outpatient HD units summarizing hospital treatments when HD patients are admitted? Ex. weight change, access issues, anticoagulation, antibiotics? #askrenal

RT @Kidney_boy
Hey #NephTwitter it is rough running a Twitter bot in the age of Elon. Our #AskRenal bot broke down and it was (at least temporarily) impossible to repair it. @dr_nikhilshah made a new bot. So now you need to follow @Ask_Renal to be part of the amazing question answering network

Any role for CAR-T in C3GN? #AskRenal @Askrenal
