Our latest paper from the @syd_health and @UofGlasgow research collaboration describes the relationship between cardiometabolic risk factors and kidney disease in males and females in @AJKDonline. Worth a read!

People with high-risk kidney disease can be identified using a simple tool: kidney failure risk equation
Our paper in @BJGPjournal suggests its potential usefulness is limited by low rates of albuminuria testing. This will also limit access to ‘flozins!
CKD: NICE guidelines on chronic kidney disease may improve referrals from primary care to nephrology clinics, but albuminuria testing rates must be improved for the full benefit to be realised doi.org/10.3399/BJGP.2022.01… @sullivanmk8 @jennifer_s_lees

Declining levels of eGFR can lead to varying patterns of multimorbidity and corresponding risk of adverse outcomes.

What combinations of health conditions co-exist at different levels of kidney function? 🫘📉

Depression and chronic pain matter!
These conditions have impacts on the day-to-day lives of people, but we showed that when combined with physical conditions like diabetes and heart disease, the risk of adverse outcomes is increased.

NEW @UofGlasgow research highlights a simple blood and urine test that can identify those most at risk of severe complications of chronic #KidneyDisease
However many patients & GPs remain unaware of the test’s life-saving potential.

How can we improve referrals from primary care to the renal clinic?🏥🫘
Urine needs to be tested more often for protein!🧪
Our study shows that only around 25% of patients with kidney disease provide urine samples for testing. 🧵

More patients with kidney disease need to provide urine samples so they receive the right treatments at the right time!

The kidney failure risk equation uses blood and urine tests to predict which patients might need a kidney transplant or dialysis in the future.
NICE guidelines suggest that GPs use this tool to decide which patients should be referred to specialist renal clinics. @NICEComms
