The risks and benefits of antiplatelet treatment may be different in patients with chronic kidney disease, in whom tendency to thrombosis and bleeding hazards might be increased. Chronic kidney disease is also associated with poor response to antiplatelet therapy, and this represents a potentially important clinical problem in the setting of percutaneous coronary intervention and acute coronary syndrome. The use of new, potent P2Y12 inhibitors appears promising, although special consideration should be given to possible bleeding events. This review evaluates the benefits and harms of antiplatelet drugs in patients with chronic kidney disease.

Maximal oxygen uptake (VOmax) in healthy subjects is primarily limited by systemic oxygen delivery. In chronic kidney disease (CKD), VOmax is potentially reduced by both central and peripheral factors. We aimed to investigate the effect on VOpeak of adding arm exercise to leg exercise.

Background: The treatment options to delay the progression of diabetic nephropathy (DN), a key contributor to chronic kidney disease (CKD), are urgently needed. Previous studies reported that traditional Chinese medicine Panax notoginseng (PNG) exerted beneficial effects on DN. However, the renoprotective effects of Notoginsenoside R2 (NR2), an active component of PNG, on DN have not been investigated.

Inferior vena cava diameter in patients with chronic heart failure and chronic kidney disease: a retrospective study.

Eur J Med Res

January 2025

Medical Big Data Research Center, Medical Innovation Research Division, Chinese PLA General Hospital, 28 Fuxing RD., Beijing, 100853, China.

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) carries the highest population attributable risk for mortality among all comorbidities in chronic heart failure (CHF). No studies about the association between inferior vena cava (IVC) diameter and all-cause mortality in patients with the comorbidity of CKD and CHF has been published.

Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, a total of 1327 patients with CHF and CKD were included.

Association of iron deficiency with kidney outcome and all-cause mortality in chronic kidney disease patients without anemia.

Nutr J

January 2025

Division of Nephrology, State Key Laboratory of Organ Failure Research, Nanfang Hospital, National Clinical Research Center for Kidney Disease, Southern Medical University, 1838 N Guangzhou Ave, Guangzhou, 510515, China.

Background: Iron deficiency is prevalent in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), even in those without anemia. However, the effects of iron deficiency on CKD progression and all-cause mortality in non-dialysis-dependent CKD (NDD-CKD) patients without anemia remain incompletely understood.

Methods: This multicenter retrospective nationwide cohort study included adult patients with non-anemia NDD-CKD from 24 hospitals across China.

Background: C-reactive protein (CRP) is one of the most commonly monitored inflammatory markers in patients with COVID-19 to gain insight into the inflammation level in the body and to adopt effective disease management and therapeutic strategies. COVID-19 is now less prevalent, and the study of CRP as a biomarker of inflammation still needs deeper understanding, particularly in understanding its role among patients with comorbidities, which are known to influence inflammatory responses and increase the risk of severe outcomes during acute and chronic infectious diseases. The objective of this study was to evaluate the association of major comorbidities such as ischemic heart diseases, diabetes, chronic kidney disease, hypertension, and lung infections e.
