The interaction between chronic heart failure, chronic kidney insufficiency and anemia, form a vicious cycle, termed as the cardio-renal anemia syndrome. The interaction between these three conditions causes deterioration of the cardiac and renal function and increases anemia. Each of the three can cause or be caused by the others.We herein analyze and speculate the mechanisms involved in the pathophysiology of this new syndrome highlighting the main points of interest that seem to expand upon more than one specialty. The cardio-renal anemia syndrome is emerging in the area of clinical investigation with progressively elevated significance. Additionaly we report the data related to anemia treatment as part of therapeutic perspective concerning the management of patients manifesting the profile of this syndrome.

Hypoxia-inducible factor-prolyl hydroxylase (HIF-PH) inhibitors have been developed as a treatment for renal anemia. However, their therapeutic impact on patients with concomitant heart failure remains uncertain. We investigated the impact of HIF-PH inhibitors on improving renal anemia and associated clinical outcomes in patients with heart failure.

Background: There is little research on cardiorenal anemia syndrome (CRAS) in China. This study was to describe the characteristics of patients with CRAS and to explore risk factors of all-cause death.
Methods: A total of 81,795 patients were hospitalized from August 2012 to August 2021 in the nephrology department and cardiology department, of which 820 patients with CRAS were recruited into this study.

Department of Pneumology and Critical Care Medicine, Thoraxklinik University Hospital Heidelberg, Heidelberg, Germany,
Background: Established structured weaning approaches, which are effective for patients in simple and difficult weaning, are often not appropriate for patients undergoing prolonged weaning. Addressing the complexity of weaning failure requires personalized precision medicine. The therapeutic concept of treatable traits (TTs) has been proposed as a new paradigm for the management of chronic respiratory diseases.

Aims/introduction: This study aimed to investigate the risk factors for diabetic retinopathy (DR) and diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in Japanese patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). Identifying these factors could provide insights into the shared and distinct mechanisms contributing to these complications in the diabetic population.
Materials And Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis using the J-DREAMS (Japan Diabetes compREhensive database project based on an Advanced electronic Medical record System) database, which is directly linked to electronic medical records.
