eGFR slope as predictor of mortality in heart failure patients

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1217-1226, April 2025.
Abstract Aims Heart failure (HF) leads to an imbalance between heart and kidney function, resulting in poor outcomes. However, the prognostic significance of the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) trajectory in HF patients remains unclear. We analysed electronic health records (EHRs) of real‐world HF patients, assessing eGFR trajectories and ...
