What it does
Kidney International is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when targeting Kidney International or deciding whether a nephrology or hypertension clinical/translational study fits this venue. Encodes the journal's fit with a global ISN perspective, the evidence and mechanistic bar, reporting-guideline and registration requirements, ISN house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics. Venue-fit aid only, not clinical advice.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Research & Science. The repository describes itself as: Journal-specific Claude Code/Codex skill packs covering mainstream journals — AER, QJE, Nature, Cell, 管理世界, 经济研究 & 200+ more — your fast track to getting published. ｜ 覆盖主流期刊的… The licence is MIT.

What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 932eb23. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Kidney International loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 103 tokens; SKILL.md has 753 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Kidney International (kidney-international)
Journal positioning
Kidney International is the flagship journal of the International Society of Nephrology (ISN), publishing high-impact nephrology and hypertension research with an explicitly global, international perspective across clinical and translational science: kidney disease epidemiology and trials, dialysis and transplantation, and mechanistic kidney biology with clear human relevance. Its defining expectation is a clinically or translationally important advance in kidney health that matters across diverse health systems and populations, with strong representation of global-health, epidemiologic, and outcomes nephrology alongside disease mechanism — not a narrow single-center series or a basic experiment with no human anchor. Compared with the U.S.-society sibling, KI leans toward international clinical breadth and translational relevance. This skill is a fit / venue-selection / re-framing aid; it is not clinical or regulatory advice and does not replace the journal's current instructions for authors. Before submitting, re-check the live Kidney International author instructions.
When to trigger
- The author names Kidney International for a nephrology, hypertension, or kidney translational study and wants a fit/framing check.
- A kidney study must be re-framed around international clinical relevance, outcomes, or disease mechanism with human anchoring.
- The author is choosing between Kidney International and the Journal of the American Society of Nephrology (ASN flagship), or general medicine.
- The author needs the journal's reporting-guideline, registration, and global-health/ epidemiology expectations.
Scope & topic fit
- Clinical nephrology and hypertension: CKD, AKI, glomerular disease, and blood-pressure/ kidney interactions across diverse populations.
- Kidney-disease epidemiology and global-health nephrology: burden, access, and outcomes across health systems and resource settings.
- Dialysis and transplantation: outcomes, modality, access, and organ-preservation research with international relevance.
- Translational kidney science: biomarkers, genetics/genomics, and mechanism studies with validated human relevance.
- Clinical trials and large multinational cohorts with kidney endpoints.
- Hypertension and cardio-renal research connecting kidney function to systemic outcomes.
Method & evidence bar
- Clinical studies must be adequately powered with prespecified, patient-centered kidney endpoints; trials require prospective registration and the registration number.
- The applicable reporting guideline and checklist are expected: CONSORT for trials, STROBE for observational/epidemiologic work, PRISMA for systematic reviews, ARRIVE for animal studies.
- Epidemiologic and global-health studies must address representativeness, confounding, bias, and generalizability across settings explicitly.
- Translational claims need validated human relevance (tissue, biofluids, or cohorts); basic experiments need controls and biological replication.
- Effect estimates need confidence intervals and absolute as well as relative measures; causal language must match the design.
- eGFR/biomarker methods, kidney-outcome definitions, and statistical-analysis plans must be explicit.
Structure & house style
- ISN format with a structured abstract and a translational/lay-significance statement; re-check current article types (Clinical Investigation, Basic Research, etc.) and limits on the live guide.
- The introduction frames the global clinical or biological gap; the discussion states the practice implication and bounds generalizability.
- A CONSORT/STROBE/PRISMA flow diagram is expected for the relevant clinical design; animal work reports ARRIVE-aligned detail.
- Figures show representative data with statistics and N; a supplement carries full methods, the protocol/SAP, and additional analyses.

Official-submission checklist
- Before giving submission-ready advice, read
../../resources/source-basis.mdand../../resources/official-source-map.md; start from the ICMJE/EQUATOR and ISN anchors, then cite the current Kidney International page you checked. - Search the live site for "Kidney International ISN instructions for authors" and follow the current version.
- Re-check article types, abstract and significance-statement format, and word/figure/reference limits.
- Confirm trial registration, the reporting checklist (CONSORT/STROBE/PRISMA/ARRIVE), data/code-availability, and protocol/SAP submission.
- Re-check IRB/ethics and consent, transplant-donor consent where relevant, animal-care/IACUC approval, ICMJE authorship and conflict-of-interest disclosure, funding, and AI-use disclosure.
- If the live official instructions conflict with this skill, the official instructions win.
Pre-submission self-check
- The study delivers a clinically/translationally important kidney finding with relevance across settings.
- Clinical kidney endpoints are prespecified and powered; trials are registered with the number in the manuscript.
- The correct reporting checklist (CONSORT/STROBE/PRISMA/ARRIVE) is completed and attached.
- Epidemiologic work addresses representativeness, confounding, and generalizability.
- Translational claims are anchored to validated human relevance; basic work shows controls and replication.
- IRB/consent, IACUC (if animal), ICMJE disclosures, and a data-availability statement are prepared.
Common desk-reject triggers
- Single-center descriptive series with limited generalizability and no broader relevance.
- Epidemiologic analyses with inadequate confounding control or overstated causal claims.
- Basic experiments with no human anchor, replication, or ARRIVE-aligned rigor.
- Missing trial registration, protocol, or the required reporting checklist.
- Incremental dialysis/transplant or hypertension outcome reports with limited novelty or scope.
Re-routing decision
- U.S.-society, mechanism-forward nephrology with deep basic science →
journal-of-the-american-society-of-nephrology. - Diabetic kidney disease centered on endocrine/metabolic mechanism →
diabetologia/journal-of-clinical-endocrinology-and-metabolism. - Critical-care AKI dominated by ICU organ-support →
critical-care-medicine/american-journal-of-respiratory-and-critical-care-medicine. - Broad practice-changing nephrology trial → general medicine (
jama/ NEJM / The Lancet in the natural-science bundle). - Pure renal cell biology with no disease/population anchor → a basic-science venue in the natural-science bundle.
