fumarates and glucuronyl-glucosamine-glycan-sulfate

Chronic kidney failure remains a major health problem worldwide. Although current treatment is focused on the renin-angiotensin system, it is essential that new treatments targeted toward novel pathophysiological mechanisms are developed if we are to make significant progress in this area. In this review, we have outlined several promising new areas while emphasizing that large, randomized, well-controlled clinical trials are essential to reach a meaningful conclusion about the efficacy and safety of novel treatment.
