A day entirely dedicated to people who want to learn more about kidney diseases and their functions.
The slogan chosen for World Kidney Day, which aims to raise awareness about prevention each year, is: “Kidney Health for All and Everywhere”. This demonstrates the worldwide efforts being made to ensure kidney health, which is essential for the proper functioning of the body.
According to estimates by SIN (Italian Society of Nephrology), chronic kidney disease affects 10% of the population. By 2040, as stated by experts during this year’s press conference presenting the initiatives, it was announced that kidney diseases will become the fifth leading cause of death worldwide. Monuments in Padua, Livorno, Turin, and Pisa will be illuminated to raise awareness about this continuously growing phenomenon, which is also due to the aging population.
Nefrocenter will make all its centers available for free screenings to the population, telephone consultations, and online consultations with nephrologists to once again contribute concrete support to prevention.
