Episode 09 - Lupus Nephritis, PLEX, and SPIREN Trial: Key Kidney Insights

In Episode 9 of Podocyte Talk, we explore groundbreaking studies shaping kidney care:
1️⃣ Long-term effects of tacrolimus in lupus nephritis.
2️⃣ Benefits of therapeutic plasma exchange (PLEX) in ANCA-associated vasculitis.
3️⃣ The SPIREN trial on spironolactone in kidney transplant patients.

Join us as we delve into these pivotal findings and their clinical implications for kidney health. Stay informed with the latest in nephrology research and innovations!
