It's March, and that means it's time for NephMadness! Every year, our friends at AJKDBlog pit 16 unique regions of nephrology against each other in a basketball-style tournament. Prepare for the Preeclampsia region by listening to this special episode, where Anna Burgner from Vanderbilt University joins Kenar and Koyal to discuss recent discoveries in preeclampsia (the world's most common glomerulopathy).
Will the victor be Diagnosis and Treatment of Preeclampsia, or Risk Factors, Prevention, and Long-Term Sequelae in Preeclampsia? Learn more at ajkdblog.org and submit your picks at nephmadness.com by March 31!
