Why did Biogen pay up for Apellis Pharmaceuticals?

Because this may be less about buying a drug and more about buying a nephrology platform.

Our latest argues that kidney disease is starting to look like biotech’s next strategic battleground, and that Biogen’s Apellis deal may be an early signal of where the industry is heading.

For me it also means no more cleaning and changing the dressing every 3 days or so. Still, if you have a wound that doesn’t need stitches I can sort you out with a dressing now :)

Awaiting getting my peritoneal dialysis catheter removed at hospital. About 2 weeks less than a year since I had it put into my belly.

Very lucky to have never needed to use it for dialysis and even more lucky they are so happy with my transplant 6 months in that they are taking it out.

Nearly 90% of adults are at risk for this condition, but most have never heard of it, survey finds – CBS News

About 9 in 10 adults in the United States have not heard of cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome despite nearly 90% of adults being at risk for the condition, according to a recent survey from the American Heart Association.

Cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome, or CKM syndrome, is a disorder caused by the connections between heart disease, kidney disease, diabetes and obesity. The syndrome, which was defined by the AHA for the first time in October 2023, reflects how these conditions can influence or worsen each other. 

“The health conditions were previously considered separate problems and are often managed separately. With this new designation, the AHA wants people to understand that the conditions are closely connected,” Mass General Brigham explains.

To diagnose CKM syndrome, providers will test different risk factors, to determine your stage from 0 to 4, according to the Cleveland Clinic. Stage 0 means no risk factors; Stage 1 means you have excess body fat; Stage 2 means you have a condition such as Type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure or kidney disease; Stage 3 means you have heart disease without symptoms or a high risk of it; and Stage 4 means you have heart disease with symptoms, extra body fat and risk factors for diabetes or other metabolic conditions. Stage 4 could also include kidney disease.

According to a study published in JAMA last year, nearly 90% of U.S. adults have at least one risk factor for CKM syndrome, which include the following: 

• High blood pressure
• Abnormal cholesterol
• High blood sugar
• Excess weight
• Reduced kidney function

“The interplay of these risk factors increases the risk for heart attack, stroke and heart failure more than any one of them alone,” the AHA said in a news release about its survey.

Changes to eating habits and physical activity can help prevent CKM syndrome, AHA and other experts say.

In a 2023 interview with CBS New York, cardiologist Dr. Nidhi Kumar said 33% of Americans have three or more risk factors that contribute to this syndrome.

“When we think of danger in medicine, sometimes people think of the words ‘cancer’ or ‘COVID,’ but chronic diseases, like those that make up CKM, are the leading cause of death and disability in the United States,” Kumar said.

I’m still searching for a kidney donor so I can have the chance to live a more normal life again. 💚 Every share truly helps spread the word and brings me one step closer to that hope.

Please take a moment to read my story and share it if you can — it means the world to me. Thank you for your kindness and support. 🙏

I’m still here. For now. I’m at end-stage kidney failure, and dialysis keeps me alive but isn’t a cure. A kidney transplant is my only hope for a longer, healthier life. If you’re blood type O, A, or B and in good health, you might be able to help—even paired donation is possible. Please consider becoming a living donor. Visit my donor page to learn more or see if you’re a match: https://nkr.org/PZG643 Sharing this post could save a life. Thanks!

Einfacher Bluttest kann den Verlauf von Nierenerkrankungen vorhersagen🩸

Ein Forschungsteam der Universität zu Köln hat einen neuen Ansatz entwickelt, um anhand von Blutproben vorherzusagen, wie schnell eine Nierenerkrankung fortschreiten wird. Die Wissenschaftler*innen um Prof. Dr. Roman-Ulrich Müller entdeckten 29 Proteine, die mit der Abnahme der Nierenfunktion zusammenhängen. 📊

Wearing thigh high compression socks 24/7 has given me a much better understanding of how annoying af wearing tights all day must be.

Home again. All good. Most stiches out. Rest will get checked next appointment Tuesday next week and removed then or later.
Good news is creatine is 120 now, down from 154, top end of normal is 104.
