#SNAPtrial will answer this question in a large RCT (rather than observational). Come to ESCMID global and hear the results!

Approaching more than all previous SAB trials combined! What next?!
Haven't posted about SNAP for a while:

But we've just hit 4000 participants. Almost at 3 years since opening.

And submitting two late breaker oral abstracts to ESCMID Global. @escmid.bsky.social

Amazing progress and more to come.

Awesome work (and title) by star PhD student Amy Legg. How common is AKI in patients with SAB? We looked in this big cohort to find out…..
