Relationship between drug application and mortality rate in Chinese older coronary artery disease/chronic heart failure patients with and without low glomerular filtration rate.

CONCLUSION: Clopidogrel but not aspirin was beneficial in Chinese older CAD patients without low GFR rather than those with low GFR, and statins benefited for Chinese older CAD/CHF patients without low GFR rather than those with low GFR. These discoveries might offer some help for the therapy of Chinese older patients with cardiovascular/renal diseases. PMID: 31349878 [PubMed - in process]
