On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the REIN (French Renal Epidemiology and Information Network), a summary work on the contributions of the national French ESKD register was carried out. On the issue its role in research, the following key messages were retained. The growing number of publications, dissertations, theses and teams involved shows that the REIN registry has attained its objective of being a shared research infrastructure, in the field of epidemiology as well as in public health, health economics or medical data processing. REIN is a valuable tool for the study of specific kidney diseases, particularly for epidemiological data pertaining to rare diseases that may lead to stage 5 of a chronic kidney disease. The linkage with the data from the National Healthcare Data System enables integrating and analysing the medical treatments received by patients, before the initiation of the replacement therapy and towards the end, as well as the details of the hospital stays.

The effect of sevelamer on serum calcification propensity in patients with chronic kidney disease: the results of a multicentre, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial.

Background: The serum calcification propensity test (or T50 test) might become a standard tool for the assessment of vascular calcification risk and T50 might be a valuable biomarker in clinical trials of treatments intended to slow the progression of vascular calcification. Literature data suggest that non-calcium-containing phosphate binders can influence T50 in chronic dialysed patients. However, it is not clear whether similar interventions are effective in patients at earlier stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD).

High-throughput experimentation (HTE) has accelerated academic and industrial chemical research in reaction development and drug discovery and has been broadly applied in many domains of organic chemistry. However, application of HTE in electrosynthesis-an enabling tool for chemical synthesis-has been limited by a dearth of suitable standardized reactors. Here we report the development of microelectronic devices, which are produced using standard nanofabrication techniques, to enable wireless electrosynthesis on the microlitre scale.

Article Synopsis
- Pancreatic cysts vary in their risk of cancer, making it important to differentiate between mucinous and non-mucinous types, as mucinous cysts can become malignant.
- This study compares the effectiveness of measuring intracystic glucose and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) levels using endoscopic ultrasound for diagnosing these cysts, involving data from 91 patients who had fine-needle aspiration.
- Results showed that while intracystic glucose is highly sensitive (96.2%) for identifying mucinous cysts, its specificity (79.5%) is lower compared to CEA, which is very specific (100%) but less sensitive (69.2%).

Context: Data dashboards have emerged as critical tools for surveillance and informing resource allocation. Despite their utility and popularity during COVID-19, there is a growing need to understand what tools and training are tailored to nonprofit community-based organizations that may partner with public health officials.
Program: In June 2021, the Rhode Island Department of Health and Brown University partnered to create Project SIGNAL (Spatiotemporal Insights to Guide Nuanced Actions Locally), which utilizes spatiotemporal analytics to identify Rhode Island's largest disparities in COVID-19-related outcomes (eg, testing, diagnosis, vaccinations) at the neighborhood level.
