For decades, treating IgA nephropathy meant looking thoughtful while saying "let's optimise supportive care and monitor closely." Not anymore. We've gone from one road to a full therapeutic roundabout, and nobody wants the wrong exit. Hugo Diniz welcomes Vlado Perkovic to navigate the new era: anti-APRIL and anti-BAFF agents, the VISIONARY and ORIGIN data, and the 2025 KDIGO framework. Are we finally switching off the disease at its source, or just admiring another elegant proteinuria curve? Vlado helps us separate evidence from excitement, and hype from hope. A new episode of A pinch of salt.
