La néphrologie et la santé rénale occupent une place centrale dans les enjeux de santé publique en Afrique et à travers le monde. Cette compilation de travaux scientifiques met en lumière des avancées significatives dans la détection, la prise en charge et la prévention des maladies rénales, en particulier dans les contextes à faibles ressources. À travers des études épidémiologiques, cliniques et thérapeutiques, ces recherches apportent un éclairage sur des thématiques essentielles telles que l’insuffisance rénale chronique, les complications rénales du COVID-19, les disparités dans l’accès aux soins néphrologiques et les défis liés à la transplantation rénale. En mettant en exergue les réalités spécifiques aux populations africaines et aux pays en développement, ces travaux offrent une base scientifique solide pour l’amélioration des politiques de santé et l’optimisation des stratégies thérapeutiques adaptées aux besoins des patients.
