TL;DR: Patients who develop AKI during a hospitalization are at substantial risk for the development of CKD by 1 year following hospitalization and timing ofAKI recovery is a strong predictor, even for the mildest forms of AKI.

TL;DR: Study infrastructure will support a broad range of scientific approaches to identify mechanistically distinct subgroups, identify accurate biomarkers of disease activity and progression, delineate disease-specific treatment targets, and inform future therapeutic trials.

TL;DR: Among adults with CKD G3-G4 who have 5-year estimated risks for kidney failure of 5%-<15% and≥15%, approximately half were unaware of their kidney disease, a gap that has persisted nearly 2 decades.

TL;DR: Relationship changes were positive overall across postdonation time points, with nearly one‐third reporting improved donor family and spousal or partner relationships and >50% reporting improved recipient relationships, but the majority of donors reported cumulative out‐of‐pocket medical and nonmedical expenses, which were judged burdensome by 44% of donors.

TL;DR: Significant predictors for donors’ perceptions of being better people and experiencing psychological growth following donation, including age, sex, relationship to recipient, ambivalence and motivation regarding donation, and feeling that donation would make life more worthwhile are identified.
