Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Kidney diseases affect around 850 million people globally and are a growing public health burden, with high rates of associated cardiovascular mortality and no major decline in age-standardized mortality compared to other noncommunicable diseases. Climate change is an inequitable driver of kidney diseases, and climate-related disasters can disrupt access to life-sustaining kidney replacement therapies. Conversely, the care of patients with kidney diseases contributes to greenhouse gas emissions, pollution, and generates large amounts of waste. RECENT FINDINGS: Environmentally sustainable kidney care planning is pursuing kidney care practices and innovations that minimize environmental harm while remaining patient-centered and cost-effective. An adaptation and mitigation framework (a structured approach to developing adaptation strategies, policies, and measures) to guide this is lacking. SUMMARY: We propose the 'PASIGE' framework to guide climate science integration in kidney care planning -> Prevent: approaches to prevent kidney disease, its progression to kidney failure, and complications; Adopt: sustainable lifestyle, practices and therapies; Screen: targeted population screening for early detection and identification of kidney disease; Innovate: technology, manufacturing, procurement, energy sources and transportation; Generate: sustainably powered and produced low-impact net zero waste kidney replacement therapies resilient to climate threats; and Enhance: patient engagement, care quality, and system resiliency.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
