Eplerenone attenuates pulse wave reflection in chronic kidney disease stage 3-4--a randomized controlled study. [PDF]
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have high cardiovascular mortality and morbidity associated with increased arterial stiffness. Plasma aldosterone levels are increased in CKD, and aldosterone has been found to increase vascular inflammation and

Hyperaldosteronism in the Pathophysiology and Management of Cardiovascular‐Kidney‐Metabolic Syndrome
ABSTRACT Cardiovascular‐kidney‐metabolic (CKM) syndrome is defined by the pathologic interconnections between obesity, diabetes, chronic kidney disease and cardiovascular disease. An important and underrecognized pathophysiologic factor underlying CKM syndrome is obesity‐induced aldosterone excess.

Type of atrial fibrillation and clinical outcomes in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction [PDF]
Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is common in heart failure (HF), but the outcome by type of AF is largely unknown. Objectives: This study investigated outcomes related to type of AF (paroxysmal, persistent or permanent, or new onset) in 2 ...

Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists are known to reduce proteinuria in chronic kidney disease, but their effectiveness in preventing bevacizumab‐related proteinuria has not been well established. In the present multi‐institutional retrospective study, we found that these agents significantly delay the onset of moderate or higher grade proteinuria ...
