Researchers at Brigham and Women’s Hospital (BWH) have identified an independent association between early kidney dysfunction and a faster decline in cognitive function. These findings were published in the Clinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology in January 2012. 8b1f954398e959bf8ee3e93a3f239d15
