is the blogs audio version. The podcast typically starts by setting a clinical stage with a pertinent clinical question, followed by a discussion of the paper with pertinent results, strengths, limitations, and further discussion. Finally, we end every podcast with clinical take home points from the papers being reviewed. If there are papers you think we should evaluate, email them to srrezaie@gmail.com.

Background: It has long been thought that intravenous contrast can lead to acute kidney injury. Recent data, however, has called this dogmatic teaching into question. Unfortunately, the data arguing against the association of contrast with AKI comes from observational trials and, thus, carry with it numerous biases. One potential bias is baseline differences in the risk between exposure groups with patients not receiving contrast perceived to be at higher risk and those receiving contrast at lower risk of PC-AKI. Another example is selection bias due to requiring subsequent renal function testing in patients deemed to be higher risk and not those at lower risk. Both of these can form a control group at high risk of kidney injury which creates a bias in favor of contrast and potentially masking harm....Read More
