    Abstract Purpose of review: The conventional definition of chronic kidney disease (CKD) primarily relies on the identification of albuminuria or a decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). For many years, a straightforward eGFR threshold of <60 ml/min/1.73 m 2 has been widely adopted as the standard for defining CKD. Nonetheless, this criterion fails to consider the natural aging process of the kidney, and this oversight may affect the accurate diagnosis of kidney disease particularly at the extremes of age.
    Recent findings: The fixed eGFR threshold of <60 ml/min/1.73 m 2 for defining CKD misses crucial opportunities for risk prevention. Studies have revealed that the eGFR threshold at which the risks for adverse long-term health outcomes such as mortality, cardiovascular events, and kidney failure begin to rise varies substantially by age. Specifically, this threshold is lower for the elderly and higher for young adults. Consequently, this results in the over-diagnosis of kidney disease in the elderly and the under-diagnosis of kidney disease in young adults.
    Summary: To address these limitations of the current CKD definition, we discuss a number of proposed age-adapted eGFR criteria and weigh their pros and cons against the current, simple, and universally accepted approach.

    Abstract Purpose of review: Recent years have witnessed the development of kidney risk prediction models which diverge from traditional model designs to incorporate novel approaches along with a focus on earlier outcomes. This review summarizes these recent advances, evaluates their pros and cons, and discusses their potential implications.
    Recent findings: Several kidney risk prediction models have recently been developed utilizing machine learning rather than traditional Cox regression. These models have demonstrated accurate prediction of kidney disease progression, often beyond that of traditional models, in both internal and external validation. On the opposite end of the spectrum, a simplified kidney risk prediction model was recently developed which minimized the need for laboratory data and instead relies primarily on self-reported data. While internal testing showed good overall predictive performance, the generalizability of this model remains uncertain. Finally, there is a growing trend toward prediction of earlier kidney outcomes (e.g., incident chronic kidney disease [CKD]) and away from a sole focus on kidney failure.
    Summary: Newer approaches and outcomes now being incorporated into kidney risk prediction modeling may enhance prediction and benefit a broader patient population. However, future work should address how best to implement these models into practice and assess their long-term clinical effectiveness.

    Abstract The last decade has seen tremendous advances in the prevention and treatment of recurrent hyperkalemia. In this narrative review, we aim to highlight contemporary data on key areas in the epidemiology and management of hyperkalemia. Focusing on drug-induced hyperkalemia (the implications of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors [RAASi] discontinuation and the role of mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists), newer concurrent therapies that modify potassium handling (sodium-glucose transporter 2 inhibitors [SGLT2i]), the introduction of new treatment agents (oral potassium binding agents), and the controversial role of dietary potassium restriction, we apply recent research findings and review the evidence in a case-based format.

    Abstract Renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) inhibitors are evidence-based treatments for a number of conditions including hypertension, diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, and congestive heart failure. Among the most common adverse effects of RAAS inhibitors is hyperkalemia which results from either reduced secretion of aldosterone or increased resistance to aldosterone. Many of the conditions for which RAAS inhibitors are recommended further amplify the risk for hyperkalemia in and of themselves. RAAS inhibitor-related hyperkalemia is associated with an increased risk for cardiovascular events, hospitalizations, and death. Yet discontinuation of RAAS inhibitors for patients with chronic kidney disease and congestive heart failure is also associated with an increased risk for cardiovascular events, hospitalizations, and death. Therefore, clinicians are often left to struggle with the dilemma of the best management approach to RAAS inhibitor-related hyperkalemia. The ideal solution involves pharmacotherapies that are safe and effective in mitigating hyperkalemia and allow patients to continue to receive the beneficial effects from RAAS inhibitors. In this regard, modern pharmacologic agents such as patiromer and zirconium cyclosilicate are providing a mechanism whereby physicians are better equipped to maintain their patients on RAAS inhibitors.

    Abstract Impairment in cognition and decline in kidney function often converge in the aging individual with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Cognitive impairment (CI) may be preventable through modification of health behaviors and risk factors that contribute to the vascular disease burden. CKD patients often have multiple coexisting comorbid conditions contributing to vascular risk. These comorbidities include hypertension, diabetes, cerebrovascular disease, and cardiovascular disease. Emerging evidence suggests that the management and prevention of vascular risk factors and cardiovascular diseases may indirectly contribute to the prevention of CI in CKD. Sodium glucose transport protein 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are emerging as the standard of care for selected individuals with CKD, type 2 diabetes (T2DM), and heart failure with rapidly expanding indications being actively investigated. In this narrative review, we examine the intriguing hypothesis that SGLT2i demonstrate potential disease modifying properties in CI among individuals with CKD.

    Abstract Purpose of review: Clinicians have an ever-increasing number of prediction tools at their disposal for estimating the risk of kidney failure in their patients. This review aims to summarize contemporary evidence for chronic kidney disease (CKD) risk prediction models across the spectrum of kidney function, and explore nuances in the interpretation of risk estimates.
    Recent findings: A European study using predominantly laboratory data has extended kidney failure prediction to patients with more preserved estimated glomerular filtration rate. For older patients with advanced CKD, prediction tools that censor for death (such as the Kidney Failure Risk Equation) overestimate the risk of kidney failure, especially over time horizons longer than 2 years. This problem can be addressed by accounting for the competing risk of death, as shown in well designed validation studies. The clinical utility of kidney failure risk prediction tools is being increasingly tested at a population level to inform policy and referral guidelines.
    Summary: There is welcome trend to validate existing prediction tools in diverse clinical settings and identify their role in clinical practice. Clinicians should be cognizant of overestimating kidney failure risk in older patients with advanced CKD due to the competing risk of death. For moderate CKD and for short-term predictions, the Kidney Failure Risk Equation remains the most widely validated prediction tool.
