 Because the Editor-in-Chief and Deputy Editor recused themselves from consideration of this manuscript, the peer-review and decision-making processes were handled entirely by a Co-Editor (James S. Kaufman, MD, VA Boston Healthcare System) 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.
