Potential SARS-CoV-2 kidney infection and paths to injury
Nature Reviews Nephrology, Published online: 21 February 2022; doi:10.1038/s41581-022-00551-6Although direct kidney infection by SARS-CoV-2 remains controversial, a study based largely on autopsies shows increased tubulointerstitial fibrosis in patients with COVID-19 and suggests direct kidney infection. Moreover, in human kidney organoids, SARS-CoV-2 infection upregulates several pro-fibrotic and pro-inflammatory pathways. (Source: Nature Reviews Nephrology)

Shifting narratives in health care from resilience to redress and resistance
Nature Reviews Nephrology, Published online: 17 February 2022; doi:10.1038/s41581-022-00552-5Dominant narratives that describe the power of individual-level resilience underplay the long-lasting consequences of structural violence and perpetuate harms to historically marginalized patients and communities. It is time to update our approaches and narratives by addressing the root causes of inequities through redress and collective resistance to create the equitable conditions needed for communities to thrive.
