The impact of normal range estimated glomerular filtration rate on mortality in selected patients undergoing coronary angiography – a long-term follow-up

Abstract: Background Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) predicts mortality and adverse cardiovascular events in people with chronic kidney disease. The significance of eGFR within the normal range and its long-term effect on clinical adverse events is unknown. We examined the effect of normal range or mildly reduced eGFR on long-term mortality in a large prospective registry. Methods The study included consecutive patients undergoing clinically-driven co… Show more

“…As previously reported, a decrease in eGFR even within the normal or mildly reduced range is associated with increased mortality. 27 Hence, our assumption that increase in eGFR even within this normal range may be of clinical significance. In our cohort, patients with reduced baseline eGFR had a higher likelihood of a change in kidney function, either KFI or AKI.…”

“…LV function is highly dependent on these functions and is usually represented by LV-EF, which has a known significant prognostic impact in several clinical scenarios [6]. Diabetic nephropathy is a clinical symptom with progressive decline in the GFR, which has a prognostic significance as well [7].…”

“…Left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) as a surrogate marker of LV systolic function is known to be a strong predictor of cardiovascular outcome and survival even in HF or following MI [6]. Similarly, renal function, as manifested by the glomerular filtration rate (GFR), has a graded inverse association with the burden of cardiovascular comorbidities and long-term adverse events [7]. Limited information is available, however, on the relationship of DM to the type of MI [ST-elevation (STEMI) vs. non-ST-elevation MI (NSTEMI)], to LV-EF, and to GFR, as well as on the clinical outcome in patients following percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs) due to acute MI.…”
