Abstract:
The present paper summarizes highlights in the field of glomerular diseases presented at the 2015 European Renal Association congress in London. Topics covered include a European survey on renal biopsy practice and indications, the STOP-IgAN randomized controlled trial in patients with IgA-nephropathy, B-cell- targeting therapies in minimal change nephropathy and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), novel insights into the action of glucocorticosteroids in glomerular crescent and scar (FSGS) formation, the immunoproteasome in IgA-nephropathy, socio-economic factors and glomerular disease progression, glomerular CD80 (B7-1) expression in FSGS patients and aldosterone-antagonism in proteinuric renal diseases.

Effects of EDTA on End-Point Detection Methods
In the visual method, metal-ion indicators (metallochromic dyes), which have distinct colors in their free and complex forms, are added to the mixture to signal the titration's end point. They form stable complexes with metal ions, but these complexes are weaker than the corresponding metal–EDTA complexes. As a...
