"This study provides preliminary evidence that long-term weight loss with a very-low-carbohydrate diet does not adversely affect renal function compared with a high-carbohydrate diet in obese individuals with normal renal function."

In other words, the conjecture that low carb diets are damaging to the kidneys was not supported during this one year study.
