💡 "Can you survive by drinking water from the Baltic Sea?" 🌊💧 A student asked me an interesting question: You can’t survive on seawater (~35 g/L salt), but the Baltic Sea surrounding Sweden only has 7 g/L. Could that be low enough for survival? Let’s dive in. 🧵✨

🎓📢📢 My PhD student Giedre Martus will publicly defend her doctoral thesis: "Clinical, Experimental and Theoretical Studies of Solute and Water Removal in Peritoneal Dialysis" 📅 March 6, 2025, at 1:00 PM CET 📍 Alwall House, SUS Lund (and via Zoom: lu-se.zoom.us/j/61103791502)

🚨 New Research Alert! 🚨 Can phloretin (from apple trees 🍏) enhance peritoneal dialysis? Our study shows potent effects on: ✅ Improving ultrafiltration ✅ Reducing glucose absorption via GLUT inhibition ✅ Clear dose-response relationship in experimental models bit.ly/KID0717

Dose-Response Relationship of Phloretin Therapy on Water... : Kidney360

has shown to improve water transport and lower glucose absorption in experimental peritoneal dialysis. However, the dose-response relationship remains unknown, and we therefore performed a dose-respon...
