title: [Nephrology: what's new in 2015?].
abstract: Isotonic saline and buffered crystalloid solutions may carry an equivalent risk of acute kidney injury in critically ill patients. In hemodialyzed patients, highly dialyzable beta-blockers are less cardioprotective than non-dialyzable beta-blockers, cooling the dialyzate may protect their cerebral white matter and too much parenteral iron may be deleterious. A promising treatment for amyloid deposits is underway. A well tolerated treatment for hyperkalemia has emerged. Low serum magnesium and diminished phosphaturia may be associated with an increased risk of chronic kidney disease. Moderate hyponatremia should be considered as a serious public health problem.
