Journal ArticleDOI

Derivation and External Validation of Prediction Models for Advanced Chronic Kidney Disease Following Acute Kidney Injury.

TL;DR: A multivariable model using routine laboratory data was able to predict advanced chronic kidney disease following hospitalization with acute kidney injury and the utility of this model in clinical care requires further research.
Journal Article

Using Proteinuria and Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate to Classify Risk in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease

TL;DR: Using proteinuria in combination with eGFR may reduce unnecessary referrals for care at the cost of not referring or delaying referral for some patients who go on to develop kidney failure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Temporal Risk Profile for Infectious and Noninfectious Complications of Hemodialysis Access

TL;DR: Risks for noninfectious and infectious complications of the hemodialysis access decline over time with all access types and suggest that prevention strategies should target the first 6 months after access placement or a remedial access-related procedure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Examining the Association between Hemodialysis Access Type and Mortality: The Role of Access Complications.

TL;DR: Hemodialysis access complications do not seem to explain the association between access type and mortality, and clinical trials are needed to clarify whether these associations are causal or reflect confounding by underlying disease severity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gender, renal function, and outcomes on the liver transplant waiting list: Assessment of revised MELD including estimated glomerular filtration rate

TL;DR: Women are disadvantaged under MELD potentially due to its inclusion of creatinine, and since including eGFR in MELD does not improve mortality prediction, alternative refinements are necessary.
