Key Points Patients with CKD face meaningful risk of heart failure hospitalization. Daprodustat compared darbepoetin was associated a nonsignificantly greater number hospitalizations in non-dialysis patients. Background are at higher failure. The hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor daprodustat is an orally acting alternative to conventional injectable erythropoietin-stimulating agents (ESAs) for the treatment anemia patients CKD. Whether affects hospitalization unknown....
Key Points Mild-to-moderate CKD is associated with impairment in cardiovascular functional capacity as assessed by oxygen uptake at peak exercise (VO 2 Peak). Cardiac output significantly reduced patients mild-to-moderate and impaired VO Peak. Assessment of Peak cardiopulmonary testing can detect decrements function during early stages kidney decline that may not be captured using resting left ventricular geometric indices alone. Background Traditional diagnostic tools assess cardiac...
