Indoxyl sulfate in the gut–kidney axis: from diet-microbiome interactions to renal injury and targeted therapies

Key takeaways

This is a review article about indoxyl sulfate, a waste product made by gut bacteria that builds up when kidneys fail. It covers how diet and gut bacteria affect this waste, how it may harm the kidneys, and treatments being studied to lower it. A review sums up past studies and adds no new test of its own. No abstract was available, so this summary comes from the title only and gives no findings.
