Global Economic Burden Associated with Chronic Kidney Disease: A Pragmatic Review of Medical Costs for the Inside CKD Research Programme
ConclusionGlobally, CKD carries a significant economic burden, which increases substantially with increasing disease severity. We identified significant gaps in published costs and inconsistent costing definitions. Cost-effective interventions that target primary prevention and disease progression are essential to reduce CKD burden. Our results can be used to guide cost collection and facilitate better comparisons across countries/regions to inform healthcare policy.

Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers for adults with early (stage 1 to 3) non-diabetic chronic kidney disease
CONCLUSIONS: There is currently insufficient evidence to determine the effectiveness of ACEi or ARB in patients with stage 1 to 3 CKD who do not have DM. The available evidence is overall of very low certainty and high risk of bias. We have identified an area of large uncertainty for a group of patients who account for most of those diagnosed as having CKD.PMID:37466151 | DOI:10.1002/14651858.CD007751.pub3

Preoperative higher right ventricular stroke work index increases the risk of de novo aortic insufficiency after continuous-flow left ventricular assist device implantation
This study investigated the influence of preoperative hemodynamic parameters on de novo AI in CF-LVAD recipients. We reviewed 125 patients who underwent CF-LVAD implantation without concomitant AV surgery between 2005 and 2018. De novo AI was defined as moderate or severe AI in those with none or trivial preoperative AI. During mean 30 ± 16 months of CF-LVAD support, de novo AI-free rate was 86% and 67% at 1 and 2 years, respectively. Multivariable analysis showed that higher right ventricular stroke work index (RVSWI) (hazard ratio, 1.12 /g/m2/beat; 95% confidence interval, 1.00 –1.20;p = 0.047) and trivial ...

Atherosclerosis on CT coronary angiography and risk of long-term cardiovascular events post liver transplantation
CONCLUSION: The standardized CAD-RADS classification on CTCA predicted the occurrence of cardiovascular outcomes following LT, with a potential to increase utilization of preventive cardiovascular therapies.PMID:37432891 | DOI:10.1097/LVT.0000000000000215

Outcomes of Combined Heart-Kidney Transplantation in Older Recipients
CONCLUSION: Combined HKT is increasing in older recipients, and advanced age ≥65 should not preclude HKT.PMID:37396466 | PMC:PMC10314816 | DOI:10.1155/2023/4528828

In-hospital stroke and mortality trends after left ventricular assist device implantation in the United States from 2017 to 2019
CONCLUSIONS: Our study found a significant downtrend in the in-hospital mortality rates among patients with LVAD without substantial changes in stroke rate trends over the study timeframe. As stroke rates remained steady, we hypothesize that improved management along with better control of blood pressure, could have played an important role in survival benefit over the study time frame.PMID:37387231 | DOI:10.1177/03913988231183723
