Kidney360 publishes research on kidney disease, including its progression, management, and patient outcomes. Articles cover topics such as dialysis initiation rates, conservative kidney management, the use of newer drug classes for chronic kidney disease (CKD), and the impact of lifestyle factors like cannabis use on patients undergoing hemodialysis. The journal also explores diagnostic approaches, including renal functional reserve and the estimation of glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) slopes, as well as patient-centered aspects like health literacy and advance care planning in dialysis patients. Research also examines the physiological aspects of kidney health, such as the role of the gut microbiome and dietary interventions, and the clinical validity of different calcium measurements.
