*private practice nephrologist 😩😩😩😩 But don’t let anyone tell you there are no jobs to be had the nephrology (all disciplines, MD/RN/techs/etc). Many groups/areas are desperate to hire more nephrology professionals.

People who work as standardized patients for med schools works be great at this 🤔

10/10 Final thoughts ✳️ ⬇️SBP is probably good - if they can get there (cost, tolerability, frequent follow up) ✳️ This study further supports (with SPRINT) that a modest 15 mmHg lowering of SBP can have a mortality benefit of > 20% in certain high-risk patients #NephJC

8/10 Quote of the fortnight! @hswapnil.bsky.social#winning#NephJC

X/Twitter post from @hswspnil

“Individualization of targets  and all is fine  

But it’s mostly used by doctors as excuses to 
- not measure BP properly 
- escalate BP therapy properly 

Use RASi and thiazides in your CKD folks 
Don’t panic over creatinines

Stop making excuses!”

7/10 Chat consensus? 1️⃣More aggressive SBP goals, in a controlled setting is beneficial to many 2️⃣ Still no compelling data that stricter SBP targets benefit/harm kidney endpoints 3️⃣Not sure if these results are generalizable (Chinese only, not a pragmatic study) #NephJC
