Chronic cardiovascular–kidney disorder: a new conceptual framework

Nature Reviews Nephrology, Published online: 15 November 2023; doi:10.1038/s41581-023-00789-8The current nomenclature for cardiorenal syndrome is problematic owing to its chronological approach and the systemic nature of some of the subtypes. We suggest adoption of a new concept, chronic cardiovascular–kidney disorder, that better reflects the contributions of common risk factors and shared pathophysiological mechanisms.
