Factors Associated With Low Persistence, Adherence to OAB Medication
Researchers conducted meta-analyses to investigate the real rates of persistence and adherence to overactive bladder drug therapies and moderating factors.
Predialysis Potassium Variability Linked With Post-Dialysis Death
Higher potassium variability in patients with advanced CKD prior to starting dialysis may serve as a clinically important prognostic marker for mortality after transitioning to dialysis, according to investigators.
Early Transfusion May Not Worsen Kidney Graft Outcomes in Selected Cases
Perioperative transfusion of blood products was not associated with worse clinical outcomes or allosensitization in a study of selected kidney transplant recipients.

Study: Controlling Bone Mineral Parameters in Advanced CKD May Up Survival
Study data illustrate the potential benefits of controlling serum phosphate, intact parathyroid hormone, and calcium levels in patients with nondialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease.
CKD-MBD Testing, Monitoring Suboptimal in Advanced CKD
In a large US study, only half of patients with stage 3, 4, and 5 had undergone PTH retesting at 12, 8, and 4.5 months, respectively, after treatment with vitamin D sterols, in line with KDIGO guidelines.
Survival in mRCC Varies By Histologic Subtype, Metastasis Site
Patterns of disease spread varied significantly among patients with clear cell, papillary, and chromophobe renal cell carcinoma and may reflect differences in disease biology, according to investigators.
