Book excerpt: NephroShotz is a new series of Renal Medicine titles created with the ambition of providing a dedicated and comprehensive learning tool for the MRCP's Renal Specialty Certificate exam (recently rebranded as the European Specialty Examination in Nephrology, ESENeph). Each book or ‘shot’ will cover a cluster of related topics amounting to a ‘manageable chunk’ of the renal curriculum, with information presented in a logical yet engaging and conversational style. Each chapter is built around an MRCP-style best-of-five problem, with detailed answers and explanations wrapped around the text, helping to integrate and consolidate knowledge. The book's focus is unashamedly maintained on drawing together key mechanisms of disease, pivotal clinical trials and contemporary consensus guidelines to provide 'high-yield' knowledge which is both 'testable' by the exam and informs high quality day-to-day nephrology practice. Topics covered in Book 4 include: - Metabolic acidosis work-up – High anion gap metabolic acidoses (HAGMA) - Renal tubular acidoses - Metabolic alkalosis work-up – Hereditary tubulopathies – Hyponatraemia work-up and management – Disorders of water handling – Hypokalaemia work-up. NephroShotz is authored by London-based NHS Consultant Nephrologist Dr John Booth - also known on Twitter as @thepeanutkidney. Look out for book 5 in 2023!
