Chronic Kidney Disease Associated Mortality in Diastolic Versus Systolic Heart Failure: A Propensity Matched Study
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is common and is associated with increased mortality in heart failure (HF). However, it is unknown whether the effect of CKD on mortality varies by left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). We evaluated the effect of CKD on mortality in patients with systolic (LVEF ≤45%...

Zusammenfassung: | Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is common and is associated with increased mortality in heart failure (HF). However, it is unknown whether the effect of CKD on mortality varies by left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). We evaluated the effect of CKD on mortality in patients with systolic (LVEF ≤45%) and diastolic (LVEF >45%) HF. Of the 7,788 patients in the Digitalis Investigation Group trial, 3,527 (45%) had CKD (estimated glomerular filtration rate |
