Impact of estimated glomerular filtration rate on long-term clinical outcomes among Chinese patients with atrial fibrillation

Abstract: Background Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is a widely accepted indicator of renal function. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between eGFR and 3-year clinical outcomes among Chinese patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Methods We retrospectively studied 433 consecutive Chinese patients with AF (51.0% males, mean age 65.6 ± 13.2 years) between February 2013 and December 2017. Baseline clinical data were collected according to medical records. eGFR was calculated by MDRD equ… Show more

“…Patients with AF in China often experience renal failure, and those without valvular heart diseases (VHDs) have a poorer prognosis when their eGFR is lower. Close monitoring of renal function, adherence to anticoagulation guidelines, and aggressive prevention of renal impairment may improve the outcomes of these patients 37 .…”

“…Subsequent to a first event (eg, stroke), patients potentially had a higher risk of experiencing repeated cardiovascular events or death. The probabilities of repeated cardiovascular events [19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38] (Table S2) and relative risks for intensive treatment compared with standard treatment 39 (Table S3) were derived from the published literature.…”
