Introduction: Both coronary flow reserve (CFR) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are known to be associated with adverse cardiac events. However, it is unclear how these prognostic factors are interrelated. This study evaluated the association between intracoronary physiologic indexes and CKD and their prognostic implications.

However, the current guidelines that define cardiac diastolic dysfunction may underrate the clinical implications of those with indeterminate diastolic function.
Objectives: We sought to evaluate the prognostic implications of indeterminate diastolic function on echocardiography and its association with coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD).
