Developing hydrogels with high conductivity and toughness a facile strategy is important yet challenging. Herein, we proposed a new strategy to develop conductive hydrogels by growing metal dendrites. Water-soluble Sn ions were soaked into the gel and then converted to Sn dendrites an electrochemical reaction; the excessive Sn ions were finally removed by water dialysis, accompanied by dramatic shrinkage of the gel.

: Inflammation may contribute to hyporesponsiveness to erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) and is often present in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Roxadustat is approved in multiple countries for the treatment of anemia of CKD. This pooled analysis evaluated the efficacy and safety of roxadustat in patients with dialysis-dependent (DD) or non-dialysis-dependent (NDD) CKD by inflammation status.

Managing diabetes in patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD) is challenging due to the combined effects of dietary glucose, glucose from dialysate, and other medical complications. Advances in technology that enable continuous biological data collection are transforming traditional management approaches. This review explores how multi-omics technologies and artificial intelligence (AI) are enhancing glucose management in this patient population.

Background: Current kidney transplant (KT) policies offer advantages in waiting time and organ allocation priority to pediatric patients waitlisted before 18 years old. This study evaluates the effects of this policy for patients who are on dialysis before, but not waitlisted until after, age 18.

Methods: Patients aged 11-25 years and waitlisted between 2001 and 2022 for KT were identified in the OPTN STAR data file for analysis.

Kidney transplantation remains the gold standard treatment for end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), effectively alleviating numerous comorbidities and offering a substantial survival advantage over long-term dialysis. Despite advancements in immunosuppressive regimens and improvements in graft and patient survival rates, extended patient longevity brings an accumulating burden and complexity of bone disease in this population, which often goes underrecognized. The present study reviews the pathophysiology of CKD-MBD in pediatric KTR, focusing on the progression of bone disease before and after transplantation.
