Mohd Ashraf Alam, Mohammad Nasiruddin, Shahzad F Haque, Rahat Ali KhanSaudi Journal of Kidney Diseases and Transplantation 2020 31(1):21-31 Chronic kidney disease (CKD) encompasses a spectrum of different pathophysio- logic processes associated with abnormal kidney function. When it reaches end-stage renal disease (ESRD), the only option is dialysis and renal transplantation. This is unaffordable by most patients. Hence, newer treatment modalities are being looked for, which can slow down the progression...
