Sumario:Kidney disease is one of the fastest growing causes of death worldwide, disclosing an unmet clinical need for early diagnosis and optimized risk stratification that allows high risk patient selection for clinical trials and for more intensive nephroprotective interventions in the clinic. The current issue of PROTEOMICS—Clinical Applications contains four manuscripts that explore different aspects of clinical proteomics implementation in the context of acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease and, more specifically, diabetic kidney disease, and kidney transplantation from a diagnostic and risk stratification point of view. Overall, the evidence discussed suggests that chronic kidney disease is an example where clinical proteomics has become a valuable tool ready for clinical implementation, expected to have a major impact in patient management.
