 Because the Editor-in-Chief recused himself from consideration of this manuscript, the peer-review and decision-making processes were handled entirely by a Co-Editor (Wolfgang C. Winkelmayer, MD, ScD, Harvard Medical School) who served as Acting Editor-in-Chief. Details of the journal's procedures for potential editor conflicts are given in the Editorial Policies section of the AJKD website.
