Predictors of chronic heart failure development and progression in pre-dialysis patients with chronic kidney disease

Počki, 2019
Background. Chronic kidney disease leads to early damage to the heart and blood vessels with the development of heart failure. The manifestation of one disease leads to the progression of another, since chronic heart failure is a condition in which the ...

Immunosuppressive Drugs in Early Systemic Sclerosis and Prevention of Damage Accrual

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Organ damage in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) in individual organs such as the lungs may be prevented by receiving immunosuppressive drugs (ISs). A new measure of global organ damage, the Scleroderma Clinical Trials Consortium Damage Index (SCTC‐DI), has allowed us to investigate whether receiving ISs may reduce global organ damage ...

Considering the Risks and Costs of Solid Organ Xenotransplantation

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.
This perspective discusses the rationale, risks, and costs of whole‐organ xenotransplantation. It considers alternative strategies to obviate the demand for transplants and optimize allotransplantation systems and practices that do not impose xenotransplantation's harms and risks, and whether they are the most ethical and effective means to increase ...

Outcomes of Chronic Heart Failure [PDF]

Archives of Internal Medicine, 2003
Outcomes related to chronic heart failure (HF) remain relatively poor, despite advances in pharmacological therapy and medical and nursing care. Experts agree that outpatient care may be among the factors that affect HF outcomes. We hypothesized that the method by which outpatient care is delivered may affect outcomes in this patient population.A ...
