A Strategic Roadmap to Support Communication on and Acceptance of Surrogate Endpoints: The REnal Surrogacy accEpTance in Chronic Kidney Disease (RESET CKD) Collaboration
The development of innovative and effective treatments remains a priority [1, 2], especially for chronic and progressive diseases associated with high morbidity and mortality despite current therapies [3, 4, 5–6]. Demonstrating the definitive benefit of new interventions on patient-relevant final...
The association between potassium level during the anhepatic stage of orthotopic liver transplantation and postoperative acute kidney injury: an exploratory study
Liver transplantation (LT) has emerged as the definitive and preferred modality for hepatic replacement in end-stage liver disease patients [1]. Despite the escalating success rates of the procedure due to medical technological innovations, the postoperative outcomes, both in the short and long term,...
Energy drink-induced acute kidney injury: a case report and review of the literature

While AKI has traditionally raised concerns about graft quality, recent studies suggest that kidneys from donors with AKI can provide acceptable outcomes [1, 2–3]....
