POCUS Region vs Genetics Region:
🏆POCUS in AKI🏆 wins 6-3 against PKD Masqueraders
BRP: "POCUS in AKI is critical for decision making on a daily basis, and wins because of its generalizability and overall utility."

C3G vs Cerebronephrology:
🏆C3G Treatment🏆 wins 6-3 against Cerebronephrology in ESKD
BRP: “This should be an easy win – if a #blueribbonfail comes from Cerebronephrology winning, I want it on record that this was not my vote.”
bit.ly/NM26C3GTreatment #NephMadness
Animal House vs Trolls of Transplantation Region:
🏆BKV🏆wins 7-2 against Dogs
BRP: “The fact that immunosuppressants can cause kidney rejection due to BKV, which gives them their chance to surface, is worth further research & study.”
bit.ly/NM26BK #NephMadness
IgA Nephropathy Region vs AI Region:
🏆B-Cell Modulators🏆 wins 6-3 against Natural Language Processing
BRP: “Maybe I’m just riding the IgA Nephropathy hype train, but B-cell targets are hopefully gonna change everything."
