Zusammenfassung: | Advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) frequently aggravates heart failure (HF). However, these patients have inherently been excluded from most HF trials. We aim to provide updated estimates of the representation of patients with advanced CKD and the provision of baseline renal function indices in HF trials with a focused interest on the landmark trials. Updated systematic review was performed from the inception of MEDLINE to 31 December 2019 to identify all chronic HF randomized trials published in the three major cardiology and medical journals, respectively, which included mortality endpoint. The included studies were analysed based on the representativeness of the advanced CKD population and the reporting of baseline renal function. A total of 187 eligible randomized trials with 322,374 participants were included in our analysis. One hundred and six trials (56.7%) had exclusion criteria related to renal function, which remained a continuing trend–55.1% (27/49) from inception-2000, 53.4% (39/73) from 2001–2010 and 61.5% (40/65) from 2011 (P = 0.64). The exclusion criteria, however, have become less restrictive. There was a temporal improvement in the likelihood of HF trials in providing baseline renal function indices (28.6% from inception-2000 versus 53.4% from 2001–2010 and 83.1% from 2011, P |
