End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) afflicts some 40 million Americans; of thse, some half million are considered terminal. Interestingly, "African and Hispanic Americans [are at] a double-to-quadruple risk for the disease, compared to Caucasians of European ancestry."
But that may all change:
"An Israeli research team ... has discovered new genetic data on a DNA region that could predict who will develop end-stage kidney disease."
Knowing what causes the dread disease is a first step towards developing a treatment protocol for it, and (perhaps) a cure.
Good news.
