Association between COVID-19 and the development of chronic kidney disease in patients without initial acute kidney injury - Scientific Reports

While the association between COVID-19 and acute kidney injury (AKI) is well documented, the impact of COVID-19 on the development of advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains unclear, particularly in patients without initial AKI. Using the TriNetX healthcare database, we conducted a matched cohort study comparing 141,587 COVID-19 and 141,587 influenza patients. We excluded patients with AKI within one month of infection and matched groups on demographics, comorbidities, and baseline laboratory values. The primary outcome was the incidence of advanced CKD (stages 3–5) at the 12-month follow-up. COVID-19 patients showed higher 12-month risks of advanced CKD (hazard ratio [HR]:2.02, 95% confidence interval [CI]:1.69–2.42, p < 0.0001), AKI (HR 3.04, 95%CI:2.61–3.55, p < 0.0001), and estimated glomerular filtration rate < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 (HR:3.01, 95%CI:2.74–3.30, p < 0.0001) compared to influenza patients. Subgroup analyses showed consistently elevated risks across sexes and in patients over 45 years, while younger patients did not demonstrate an increased risk of advanced CKD at the 12-month follow-up. Diabetes mellitus and hypertension have emerged as the strongest predictors of advanced CKD development. In conclusion, COVID-19 is associated with an increased risk of long-term renal dysfunction compared with influenza, suggesting the need for extended monitoring of kidney function in high-risk populations.

Kind of glorious, in a teenager surfing on the roof of a speeding train carriage way, that this hasn't been in place for years already.

🇺🇸US: Florida will provide weekly COVID-19 data again as part of lawsuit settlement.

Plaintiffs, including several media organizations, filed a lawsuit in 2021 alleging the Florida Department of Health violated the state’s public records law by turning down requests for daily COVID-19 data.

After a two-year fight, the Florida Department of Health will release more data about COVID-19 and pay $152,500 in legal fees and costs, according to a settlement released Monday by plaintiffs in the case.

I often hear people say: “More people are dying from COVID than ever, yet we don’t care anymore.” They have missed the point.

"Since her report went online last week, Débarre has been the subject of abuse and conspiracy theories circulating online, largely among people who support the theory the virus emerged from a leak from the Wuhan Institute of Virology...

Most concerning has been a threat by a stranger who claims to know where Débarre lives."
