This review discusses the influence of gut microbiota dysbiosis on diabetic kidney disease through metabolite profile changes and immune and inflammatory mechanisms. We also elaborate on the mechanism of dysbiosis in the onset and development of other kidney diseases.

Kidney biopsy (KBx) is the gold standard for evaluation of kidney disease, but is associated with a higher risk of complications in patients with reduced glomerular filtration rate (GFR). We studied the safety and utility of KBx in patients with eGFR <30?ml/min/1.73?m2.

The prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is on the rise due to population aging and multimorbidity. Taiwan is particularly afflicted by this prevailing ailment. Although multidisciplinary pre-dialysis care has been implemented to halt CKD progression and reduce health-care utilization in Taiwan, more is needed to reduce the local burden of CKD.

Fluid overload (FO) in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients is associated with mortality. We explore if low daily sodium removal is an independent risk factor for mortality. We examined severely FO PD patients established for >1?year in expectation that PD prescription would have been optimized for solute clearance and ultrafiltration. We also wish to determine the relationship between kt/v and sodium removal.

Urine cell-free DNA (cfDNA) is a new type of liquid biopsy biomarker used in tumours and allograft injury detection but is highly susceptible to degradation by the high nuclease activity of urine. This study presents a newly developed urine cfDNA preservation solution (AlloU), efficient for examining allograft injury in kidney transplant recipients (KTx).
