A global analysis indicates that countries with higher socioeconomic status and older populations are experiencing increasing rates of acute kidneyinjury–related mortality, a trend projected to continue through 2050.

The findings will be presented at American Society of Nephrology (ASN)Kidney Week 2025 November 5–9.

Expanding the waitlisting criteria for kidney transplantation to include risk ofkidney failure—rather than taking a single measurement of kidney function—could improve outcomes in younger patients and reduce racial disparities in access to kidney transplantation.

A transitional dialysis program piloted in Austin, TX lowered the use ofcostly emergency dialysis in uninsured people with kidney failure, and it facilitated permanent dialysis access placement and transplant evaluations.

A diagnosis and treatment protocol including the prompt initiation of dialysisled to reduced mortality from metformin-associated lactic acidosis at a hospital in Thailand.

Researchers developed and validated a model that estimates individualized survival probabilities with conservative management versusdialysis in patients with advanced chronic kidney disease.
