Meta-analysis on the main outcomes of angiotensin receptorneprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) in heartfailure (HF) patients with end-stage kidneydisease (ESKD) on dialysis. Abstract Aims Angiotensin receptorneprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) has played an increasingly important role in the management of heartfailure (HF).
Finerenone is already approved to reduce cardiovascular and kidneydisease risks in patients with type 2 diabetes-associated CKD, but not for HF. The post Finerenone’s Early HeartFailure Impact appeared first on Cardiac Wire. And with a new drug, knowing which patients to target is a good way to start.
Chronic kidneydisease coexists in up to 40%–50% of patients with chronic heartfailure cases. There are guidelines for patients with heartfailure and chronic kidneydisease separately, but they do not specifically address patients with concomitant heartfailure and kidneydisease.
Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA) use in severe chronic kidneydisease and heartfailure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Methods and results We analysed patients with HFrEF (ejection fraction <40%), not on dialysis, from the Swedish HeartFailure Registry.
However, researchers said the drug may be helpful in reducing heartfailure risks, including hospitalization, following a heart attack. All secondary endpoints related specifically to heartfailure outcomes were significantly reduced among patients who received empagliflozin.
Introduction:Smoking is a well-known risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and kidneyfailure among patients with chronic kidneydisease (CKD). However, the association of former and current smoking status (vs.
Hypertension represents a major modifiable risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD), heartfailure (HF), stroke, chronic kidneydisease (CKD), and dementia.
Death from heartdisease: 51% reduction in risk. HeartFailure: 69% reduction in risk. KidneyDisease: 42% reduction in risk. Death from any cause: 53% reduction in risk. Cancer deaths: 43% reduction in risk. High Blood Pressure: 37% reduction in risk. Dementia: 64% reduction in risk. Let me be clear.
Albuminuriaincreased urine albumin excretionis associated with cardiovascular mortality among patients with diabetes, hypertension, chronic kidneydisease, or heartfailure, as well as among adults with few cardiovascular risk factors. Circulation, Volume 151, Issue 10 , Page 716-732, March 11, 2025.
Efficacy and safety of finerenone in patients with chronic kidneydisease and type 2 diabetes by diuretic use: a FIDELITY analysis. a If patients were receiving both types of diuretics at baseline, they were included in both subgroups. Patients were analysed by baseline diuretic use (yes/no) and type of diuretic (loop or thiazide).
Data on major cardiovascular events (MACE; mortality, myocardial infarction, stroke, heartfailure) through December 2021 were obtained from national registries. Furthermore, compared with other GLD, the use of cardioprotective GLD was more common in patients with a less frequent history of heartfailure (5.0%
While composite of death and heartfailure hospitalizations was not significantly reduced, empagliflozin may help reduce heartfailure risks after a heart attack, according to results from the EMPACT-MI trial presented on day one of the American College of Cardiology Scientific Sessions, ACC.24,
Journal of the American Heart Association, Ahead of Print. The index date was the first CKD stage 3b/4 diagnosis with 1 hyperkalemia diagnosis and 1 serum potassium >5.0 mmol/L in the preceding 12 months (baseline) for patients with hyperkalemia and a randomly selected CKD stage 3b/4 diagnosis for controls.

Spironolactone, a steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA), has been used to treat patients with heartfailure (HF) for more than half a century. The use of MRAs has been limited due to excessive concern about hyperkalemia.
Introduction Heartfailure (HF) incidence is increasing in older adults with high hospitalisation and mortality rates. Frailty, chronic kidneydisease and ischaemic heartdisease increased significantly versus the first period (p<0.001). Treatment is complicated by side effects and comorbidities.

ABSTRACT: Albuminuria, an established biomarker of the progression of chronic kidneydisease, is also recognized as a biomarker for the risk of cardiovascular disease. Elevated urinary albumin excretion indicates kidney damage and systemic vascular disease, including myocardial capillary disease and arterial stiffness.
