Journal Article
Davies, S. J., Coyle, D., Lindley, E. J., Keane, D., Belcher, J., Caskey, F. J., …Sim, J. (2023). Bio-impedance spectroscopy added to a fluid management protocol does not improve preservation of residual kidney function in incident hemodialysis patients in a randomized controlled trial. Kidney International, 104(3), 587-598. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.kint.2023.05.016

Avoiding excessive dialysis-associated volume depletion may help preserve residual kidney function (RKF). To establish whether knowledge of the estimated normally hydrated weight from bioimpedance measurements (BI-NHW) when setting the post-hemodialy...

The Effect of the COVID-19 Pandemic on HbA1c Testing: Prioritization of High-Risk Cases and Impact of Social Deprivation (2023)
Journal Article
Holland, D., Heald, A. H., Hanna, F. F., Stedman, M., Wu, P., Sim, J., …Fryer, A. A. (2023). The Effect of the COVID-19 Pandemic on HbA1c Testing: Prioritization of High-Risk Cases and Impact of Social Deprivation. Diabetes Therapy, 14, 691-707. https://doi.org/10.1007/s13300-023-01380-x

INTRODUCTION: Studies show that the COVID-19 pandemic disproportionately affected people with diabetes and those from disadvantaged backgrounds. During the first 6 months of the UK lockdown,?>?6.6 M glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) tests were missed. We...
