#NephJC the editorialist wondered if our control arm represented ‘unnecessary dialysis’ and was not ‘standard of care’—sounds like many at #NephJC do not feel the same way?

The federal government’s demand of $1 billion from @UCLA would devastate the nation’s best public university, cut off life-saving care, halt tech and economic growth and reduce educational access. Stand with UC to protect our vital mission: www.universityofcalifornia.edu/get-involved...

GFR is only part of the story. The real Q is: Is there enough kidney function relative to what’s needed? In our new editorial we discuss noninvasive GFR measurement and why it must be interpreted in the context of balancing supply and demand. @asnpublications.bsky.social @ucsfnephrology.bsky.social
