    The threat posed by antimicrobial resistance is urgent and spares no country - including Brazil.

    Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major blind spot for many Americans, a new survey suggests. The poll, conducted by the Global Coalition on Aging, asked 1,000 American adults about their understanding and perception of CKD.
