Two papers published this month in JASN provide new insights into these unsolved questions: Why is the risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease so high in kidney patients? Why is the podocyte slit diaphragm so vulnerable to immunological injury?

The June issue of JASN features new population level data from CMS on the real burden of the pandemic for dialysis and transplant patients in the US. These grim numbers remind us of the important role nephrologists play in Advance Care Planning.
