Obesity and chronic kidney disease: a cardio-kidney-metabolic framework for renal vulnerability and risk stratification.

Key takeaways

This review explains how obesity can hurt the kidneys. It uses a new framework that looks at the heart, kidneys, and metabolism together. The authors suggest that weight alone is not the only cause of damage. This is a discussion of ideas, not a test with new results.
