🧬 New paper out! Can a urine test diagnose IgA nephropathy? We profiled urinary exosomal microRNAs in the Indian cohort — and found signatures that tell IgAN apart from healthy & other kidney diseases. Open access 🔓👇 www.wjgnet.com/2220-6124/fu...

Any experience with generic budesonide versus Tarpeyo(targeted release budesonide) for IgA nephropathy? All I can find are proteinuria studies and increased risk of systemic side effects. Blue Cross wants patient to fail generic budesonide for 3 months before approving Tarpeyo. #askrenal

I'm not pleased that social media algorithms decided I needed to know more facts about prion diseases and prions in general. I was perfectly fine without all of this knowledge.

A huge problem with UPSs is the inability to tell whether the UPS has gone bad or a battery has gone bad. Unfortunately I have 3 UPSs in this state.

Post-COVID labs are in. Current score: COVID 0 sibeprenlimab 1 Only numbers out of range at this point are eGFR and SCr (and glucose due to SGLT2i), which is really surprising. #NephSky #IgANephropathy

Really cool that Motel 6 canceled our reservation for next week out of the blue, leaving us scrambling to find a place last-minute. They also earned bonus points for useless customer service and inability to rebook elsewhere at any discount.

Why do all clothes that my wife brings home from a clothing swap have a very distinctive smell that feels a whole lot like allergies to me? My eyes are itching and I can't stop sneezing. Should I summon the expert @rubinallergy.bsky.social? Or assume that somebody who brought clothes had a cat?
