Abstract

At a recent meeting of international experts on clinical aspects of progressive chronic kidney disease (CKD), an extensive analysis of extant clinical trials was used to develop more effective and economical surrogate markers for CKD outcomes in adults. This article describes the reasons for this undertaking, the methods and conclusions of the meeting, and the relevance of these findings to pediatric nephrology.
