Therefore, in this review we analyze the available evidence on medical expulsive therapy for ureteral stones; describe the evidence about non-pharmacological stone therapy including dietary modifications and citrus ...

Podocyturia in Fabry disease.
CONCLUSION: Podocyturia is an important parameter in the assessment of renal disease in general, and it may serve as an additional early tool for monitoring Fabry disease nephropathy even before changes in ACR are seen. This may prove to be a useful tool to assess disease progression in patients expected to have a more aggressive phenotype.

Averting the legacy of kidney disease-focus on childhood.
Authors: Ingelfinger JR, Schaefer F, Kalantar-Zadeh K, World Kidney Day Steering Committee
Abstract
World Kidney Day 2016 focuses on kidney disease in childhood and the antecedents of adult kidney disease that can begin in earliest childhood. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) in childhood differs from that in adults, as the largest diagnostic group among children includes congenital anomalies and inherited disorders, with glomerulopathies and kidney disease in the setting of diabetes being relatively uncommon. In addition, many children with acute kidney injury will ultimately develop sequelae that may lead to hypertens...
