    Potassium and the kidney: a reciprocal relationship with clinical relevance

    By controlling urinary potassium excretion, the kidneys play a key role in maintaining whole-body potassium homeostasis. Conversely, low urinary potassium excretion (as a proxy for insufficient dietary intake)...

    Personalized screening intervals for kidney function in patients with chronic heart failure: a modeling study

    High mortality and rehospitalization rates demonstrate that improving risk assessment in heart failure patients remains challenging. Individual temporal evolution of kidney biomarkers is associated with poor c...

    Effect of sodium bicarbonate supplementation on the renin-angiotensin system in patients with chronic kidney disease and acidosis: a randomized clinical trial

    Acidosis-induced kidney injury is mediated by the intrarenal renin-angiotensin system, for which urinary renin is a potential marker. Therefore, we hypothesized that sodium bicarbonate supplementation reduces ...

    Disorders of calcium and magnesium balance: a physiology-based approach

    Disorders of calcium and magnesium balance are physiologically interesting and clinically challenging. In this review, we attempt to bridge the gap between physiology and practice by providing a physiology-bas...
