Reviews
“Chronic Kidney Disease, Dialysis, and Transplantation: A Companion to Brenner and Rector’s The Kidney (4e) is a pivotal ebook, particularly praising the initial sections focused on recognizing and managing progressive chronic kidney disease. As this patient demographic grows, it is paramount for primary care physicians to have the right educational tools like this one at their disposal. Subsequent sections cater more specifically to nephrologists, yet they effortlessly convey the newest trends in advanced CKD management, followed by a well-organized overview of acute kidney injury diagnosis and management.” — Jon Webb, MD, Doody’s Review Service
“This fourth edition of the textbook is authored by leading figures in nephrology, hypertension, and kidney transplantation. It is specifically designed for physicians and allied health professionals with an interest in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and its associated complications. The editors have provided a consistent, comprehensive, and easily digestible format, grounding their discussions in the most recent literature pertaining to CKD. Unlike more encyclopedic references, this book zeroes in on relevant, CKD-specific material. The user-friendly layout of the book enhances accessibility, and in alignment with modern educational practices, readers can access an electronic version via the ExpertConsult website. This innovative feature not only allows for material printing but also offers integrated links to key online databases, including MEDLINE and PubMed through the references at the end of each chapter. Chronic Kidney Disease, Dialysis, and Transplantation is particularly beneficial for CKD clinicians and medical professionals, especially nephrologists, nephrology fellows, internists, and family physicians. Additionally, it serves as an excellent resource for other allied health professionals engaged in CKD care. For medical students, interns, and residents considering a future in nephrology, this ebook serves as a valuable introduction to the standard issues faced in nephrology practices, whether within academic settings or private practices. I advocate for its inclusion in all medical school libraries.” — Dr. Edgar Lerma, JAMA
