Clin-Star corner: what is new at the interface of geriatrics and nephrology?
In this article, the authors highlight key findings of three recent original investigations in nephrology and describe each study, the relevance to the care of older adults, and current areas of uncertainty that warrant further investigation. The three articles relate to removal of the race adjustment in the estimation of kidney function, the use of novel therapeutics to halt chronic kidney disease progression and improve cardiovascular outcomes, and medication management for short-term pain control in chronic kidney disease.
