Article Synopsis
- Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) co-occur, showing distinct differences in how they affect males and females, despite similar risk factors for both sexes.
- In a study using male and female mice, males on a high-adenine diet developed more severe CKD and displayed significant cardiac issues, like left ventricular hypertrophy and prolonged QTc intervals, compared to females.
- A new ECG marker called S-J duration was identified, increasing with disease progression, and highlighting the importance of studying these sex-specific cardiac differences in CKD-induced CVD.
