💥Tweetorial on C3 Glomerulopathy (C3G)
⚡️what is C3 Glomerulopathy?
⚡️how to establish the diagnosis?
⚡️what is the role of Complements? 💥C3 Glomerulopathy (C3G) represents rare kidney diseases affecting both children & adults
⚡️It encompasses 2 distinct conditions:
1- DDD (dense deposition disease)
2- C3GN (C3 Glomerulonephritis)

Tweetorial on 'Antigens in Primary Membranous Nephropathy & Epitope Spreading' ..inspired by excellent clinicians @GlassockJ & @NephRodby whose daily case discussions on @ASNCommunities have been like a virtual fellowship @RenalFellowNtwk @NSMCInternship @kidney_boy
1/ 💥Primary MN
⚡️one of the commonest causes of nephrotic syndrome
⚡️reflects histological change of GBM thickening with little or no proliferation or infiltration
⚡️many antigens identified recently, starting with PLA2R
⚡️15 to 20% of MN remain negative for any known antigens

My attempt on "Decoding the HLA" with tweetorial & some slides/VisualArts @kidney_boy @NSMCInternship @Nephro_Sparks @hswapnil @rheault_m @RenalFellowNtwk @ssfarouk #Transplant
1/ 💥MHC complex
⚡️cluster of genes--> encodes HLA molecules
⚡️located on chromosome 6p21
⚡️over 200 genes; of which 40% involved in immune response

My maiden attempt at Tweetorial-- 💥on STARRT-AKI trial. @NephJC @kidney_boy @Nephro_Sparks @ssfarouk @STARRTAKI @hswapnil
1/ 💥Background:
⚡️AKI is associated with high risk of death in ICU
⚡️Initiation of dialysis early has conceivable advantages
⚡️Appropriate timing for dialysis is uncertain
⚡️Previous studies👇 have shown discrepant results
