Aims: To develop a position statement that identifies research priorities in diabetic kidney disease and provides recommendations to researchers and research funders on how best to address them.
Methods: A one-day research workshop was conducted, bringing together research experts in diabetes and kidney disease, healthcare professionals, and people living with diabetes, to identify and prioritise research recommendations.
Results: The following key areas were identified as needing increased focus: Understanding causal mechanisms in diabetic kidney disease Prevention of diabetic kidney disease Addressing health inequalities Improving diagnosis Improving care Supporting self-management CONCLUSIONS: This position statement outlines recommendations to address the urgent need to tackle diabetic kidney disease and calls on the diabetes and kidney research communities to act upon these recommendations to ensure future research works to eliminate unfair and avoidable disparities in health.

In this study, the role of phosphorylation in the liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) of tau, the underlying driving forces, and the potential implications of this separation on protein conformation and subsequent protein aggregation were investigated. We compared in vivo-produced phosphorylated tau (p-tau) and nonphosphorylated tau under different coacervation conditions without adding crowding agents. Our findings revealed that spontaneous phase separation occurs exclusively in p-tau, triggered by a temperature shift from 4 °C to room temperature, and is driven by electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions.

Aims: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a frequent comorbidity in heart failure (HF). We analysed factors associated with new-onset atrial fibrillation in patients with heart failure using linked real-world UK data from primary and secondary care, along with findings from genome-wide association studies.
Methods And Results: Among 163 174 participants with a diagnosis of HF (January 1998 to May 2016) from Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD) and Hospital Episodes Statistics (HES), 111 595 participants had no previous history of AF (mean age 76.

The 2012 Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes guidelines clearly define emergent indications for kidney replacement therapy; however, whether dialysis should be initiated in critically ill patients without these indications remains unclear. This review briefly summarizes the results of recent landmark trials and discusses their limitations originating from a criteria-based approach at a single time point. Moreover, a personalized approach based on each patient's demand-capacity balance and its future benefits as a platform for kidney support therapy in critically ill patients are discussed.

Background: Cigarette smoking is a strong risk factor for cardiovascular harm.
Objectives: The study sought to explore the detailed relationships between smoking intensity, pack-years, and time since cessation with inflammation, thrombosis, and subclinical atherosclerosis markers of cardiovascular harm.
Methods: We included 182,364 participants (mean age 58.

The sensitive, efficient, and simultaneous assay of creatinine and urea in different body fluid is crucial for the daily detection and treatment of chronic kidney disease. Here, we exploited a versatile composite surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)-flower-like ZIF-67@Ag nanoparticles (NPs) based on simple in-situ growth and ion sputtering strategies. The plasmonic Ag NPs assembled on the three-dimensional anisotropic ZIF-67 matrix, facilitating numerous resonant electromagnetic "hotspots".
