Association of intradialytic hypertension with future cardiovascular events and mortality in hemodialysis patients: effects of ambulatory blood pressure
CONCLUSIONS: IDHTN patients had higher risk for mortality and cardiovascular outcomes but this risk is at least partly confounded by the elevated BP levels during the interdialytic period.PMID:37302385 | DOI:10.1159/000531477

Mechanistic and Clinical Comparison of the Erythropoietic Effects of SGLT2 Inhibitors and Prolyl Hydroxylase Inhibitors in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease and Renal Anemia
Am J Nephrol. 2023 May 16. doi: 10.1159/000531084. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTRenal anemia is treated with erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESA), even though epoietin alfa and darbepoietin increase the risk of cardiovascular death and thromboembolic events, including stroke. Hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase domain (HIF-PHD) inhibitors have been developed as an alternative to ESAs, producing comparable increases in hemoglobin. However, in advanced chronic kidney disease, HIF-PHD inhibitors can increase the risk of cardiovascular death, heart failure and thrombotic events to a greater extent than that with ES...

The number of valvular insufficiency is a strong predictor of cardiovascular and all-cause mortality in hemodialysis patients
ConclusionsIn maintenance HD patients, the prevalence of VI is prominently high. The number of VI  ≥ 2 is associated with emergency hospitalized for acute heart failure, cardiovascular and all-cause mortality. Combining age, number of VI ≥ 2, and albumin can predict cardiovascular and all-cause mortality.

Predictors of quality of life in patients within the first year of commencing haemodialysis based on baseline data from the PIVOTAL trial and associations with the study outcomes
CONCLUSION: Quality of life was impaired in patients starting haemodialysis. A higher C-reactive protein level level was a consistent independent predictor of the majority of worse quality of life. Transferrin saturation ≤ 20% was associated with worse physical component score of quality of life. Baseline quality of life was predictive of all-cause mortality and the primary outcome measure.EUDRACT REGISTRATION NUMBER: 2013-002267-25.PMID:36995528 | PMC:PMC10061401 | DOI:10.1007/s40620-023-01571-6

Outcomes with Finerenone in Participants with Stage 4 CKD and Type 2 Diabetes: A FIDELITY Subgroup Analysis
Conclusions The cardiovascular benefits and safety profile of finerenone in participants with stage 4 CKD were consistent with the overall FIDELITY population; this was also the case for albuminuria and the rate of eGFR decline. The effects on the composite kidney outcome were not consistent over time.PMID:36927680 | DOI:10.2215/CJN.0000000000000149
