In LMICs with limited resources, the priority of providing kidney replacement therapies must be weighed against the prevention and treatment of chronic kidney disease, other kidney disorders such as acute kidney injury, and other noncommunicable diseases, as well as other urgent public health needs. Kidney failure is potentially preventable-not just through primary prevention of risk factors for kidney disease such as hypertension and diabetes, but also by timely management of established chronic kidney disease. Among people with established or incipient kidney failure, there are 3 key treatment strategies-conservative care, kidney transplantation, and dialysis-each of which has its own benefits. Joining up preventive care for people with or at risk for milder forms of chronic kidney disease with all 3 therapies for kidney failure (and developing synergistic links between the different treatment options) is termed "integrated kidney care" and has potential benefits for patients, families, and providers. In addition, because integrated kidney care implicitly considers resource use, it should facilitate a more sustainable approach to managing kidney failure than providing one or more of its components separately. There is currently no agreed framework that LMIC governments can use to establish and/or scale up programs to prevent and treat kidney failure or join up these programs to provide integrated kidney care. This review presents a suggested framework for establishing integrated kidney care programs, focusing on the anticipated needs of policy makers in LMICs. © 2020 International Society of Nephrology.

The purpose of this project was to survey nephrologists from low- and lower middle-income countries about their experiences in the following domains (i) Dialysis funding and eligibility; (ii) dialysis-procurement mechanisms; (iii) clinical protocols for dialysis; (iv) monitoring of dialysis outcomes; and (v) barriers to care for ESKD. One hundred and twenty responses from 31 low- and middle-income countries, from 8 ISN regions, were included in the analysis. When stratified by World Bank country income status, responses were received from 7 low-income countries, 12 lower middle-income countries, and 12 upper middle-income countries. Eighty-eight documents from 18 countries were uploaded, including country or institutional guidelines, protocols, and standard operating procedures. The International Society of Nephrology aims to develop a set of guidance documents that put forward a considered approach to dialysis provisions and ESKD care within resource limitations. As an initial step in this project, local practitioners from low-resource settings were surveyed about their experiences with dialysis funding, eligibility, procurement and their use of guidance documents, and how practices and procedures may have been developed with adaptations to the local circumstances. In this manuscript we describe the methodology and the main findings from the survey using an integrated quantitative and qualitative approach. © 2020 International Society of Nephrology.

This estimate is aligned with a previous report that estimated that >3 million people in the world died each year because they could not access KRT. This review discusses the reasons for the differences in treated and untreated ESKD and KRT modalities and outcomes and presents strategies to close the global KRT gap by establishing robust health information systems to guide resource allocation to areas of need, inform KRT service planning, enable policy development, and monitor KRT health outcomes. © 2020 International Society of Nephrology.

The scientific novelty of the study is determined by the development of an algorithm for strategic planning of rural development based on the foresight methodology and by the formation of a set of practical recommendations for the use of foresight tools at the municipal level of management in rural areas. The paper states that modern foresight methodology is quite flexible and multifaceted. AZD7762 inhibitor It can be widely applied at different hierarchical levels of management. In our research, we consistently analyzed foresight projects and programs used in the rural management and development forecasting. The use of a systematic approach in combination with foresight technologies allows developing strategic plans for the rural areas development from the perspective of improvement of their economic and social component. The research presents the foresight algorithm of the rural development strategic planning and its implementation mechanism at the municipal level. The main components of the foresight testing procedure of the rural areas economic development were determined on the example of such a classic agricultural region of the Russian Federation as the Republic of Bashkortostan. The results of a comprehensive foresight analysis of alternative scenarios of the rural development have been formed. We summarized that the foresight technologies should be used as a system tool for the formation and implementation of the strategy of the sustainable rural areas development. The main results of the study include summarizing the experience of foresight studies on the rural areas development; design of an algorithm of strategic planning of the rural areas development based on the foresight methodology; the formation of alternative scenarios of the rural areas development at the regional level.
