Abstract

The article discusses the global burden of kidney disease and the gaps in kidney care, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. It highlights the high death rates and economic burden associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and the disparities in prevention, early detection, diagnosis, and treatment. The text emphasizes the importance of integrating kidney care into national non-communicable disease strategies and strengthening health systems. It also discusses the challenges in managing CKD, including the need for regulation and monitoring of drug manufacturing, the importance of real-world data, and strategies to improve CKD management. The article addresses the cost and availability of medication for individuals with kidney disease, highlighting the paradoxical situation in high-income countries and the catastrophic health expenditure in low- and middle-income countries. It calls for pharmaceutical companies to ensure diverse participation in research studies and fair pricing of effective drugs. The article also emphasizes the need to focus on children with kidney diseases and suggests strategies to improve kidney disease care, including the use of polypills and digital technologies. It concludes with a call to action to address barriers and disparities in access to diagnosis and treatment and to ensure equitable kidney care worldwide. [Extracted from the article]
