Article Abstract
Increased neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation associates with high cardiovascular risk and mortality in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). However, the effect of transplantation on NETs and its associated markers remains unclear. This study aimed to characterize circulating citrullinated Histone H3 (H3cit) and Peptidyl Arginase Deiminase 4 (PAD4) in ESRD patients undergoing transplantation and evaluate the ability of their neutrophils to release NETs.This prospective cohort study included 80 healthy donors and 105 ESRD patients, out of which 95 received a transplant. H3cit and PAD4 circulating concentration was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in healthy donors and ESRD patients at the time of enrollment. An additional measurement was carried out within the first 6 months after transplant surgery. In vitro NET formation assays were performed in neutrophils isolated from healthy donors, ESRD patients, and transplant recipients.H3cit and PAD4 levels were significantly higher in ESRD patients (H3cit, 14.38 ng/mL [5.78-27.13]; PAD4, 3.22 ng/mL [1.21-6.82]) than healthy donors (H3cit, 6.45 ng/mL [3.30-11.65], P < .0001; PAD4, 2.0 ng/mL [0.90-3.18], P = .0076). H3cit, but not PAD4, increased after transplantation, with 44.2% of post-transplant patients exhibiting high levels (≥ 27.1 ng/mL). In contrast, NET release triggered by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate was higher in neutrophils from ESRD patients (70.0% [52.7-94.6]) than healthy donors (32.2% [24.9-54.9], P < .001) and transplant recipients (19.5% [3.5-65.7], P < .05).The restoration of renal function due to transplantation could not reduce circulating levels of H3cit and PAD4 in ESRD patients. Furthermore, circulating H3cit levels were significantly increased after transplantation. Neutrophils from transplant recipients exhibit a reduced ability to form NETs.

Aims: Few data are available regarding the role of tricuspid annulus plane systolic excursion to pulmonary artery systolic pressure (TAPSE/PASP), a measurement of right ventricular to pulmonary artery coupling, in patients with chronic heart failure and left ventricular systolic dysfunction.
Methods And Results: This retrospective single-centre study included outpatients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction (ejection fraction ≤ 50%) evaluated between January 2022 and December 2022. TAPSE/PASP was evaluated as a continuous variable and as tertiles according to its value on the first visit.

Background: Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) have been proven to prevent decline in kidney function and failure. Whether SGLT2i affect the risk of contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) remains uncertain.
Methods: Use of SGLT2i was assessed in consecutive diabetics undergoing coronary angiography (CA) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) from January 2020 to May 2023 at a tertiary hospital in Chongqing, China.
Background: This real-world evidence study compared risks of cardiovascular events in hospital settings among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) with and without hyperkalemia.
Methods And Results: Adults with CKD stages 3b/4 with and without hyperkalemia were identified from Optum's deidentified Market Clarity Data (January 2016-August 2022). Patients with hyperkalemia were exact and propensity score matched to patients without hyperkalemia.

Unlabelled: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health problem, CKD is widespread in the world, on average it is detected in 10-13% of the adult population. Sedentary patients with CKD on dialysis have a higher risk of mortality. Despite the significant association of physical function with mortality in patients with CKD, physical function is not routinely assessed and exercise is not a component of the routine management of patients with CKD on dialysis.
