Cardiorenal Syndrome: Classification, Pathophysiology, Diagnosis, and Treatment Strategies: A Scientific Statement From the American Heart Association.

TL;DR: The mission of this scientific statement is to describe the epidemiology and pathogenesis of cardiorenal syndrome in the context of the continuously evolving nature of its clinicopathological description over the past decade.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of Intensive BP Control in CKD

TL;DR: Among patients with CKD and hypertension without diabetes, targeting an SBP<120 mm Hg compared with <140mm Hg reduced rates of major cardiovascular events and all-cause death without evidence of effect modifications by CKD or deleterious effect on the main kidney outcome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence that elevated glucose causes altered gene expression, apoptosis, and neural tube defects in a mouse model of diabetic pregnancy.

TL;DR: It is found that elevated glucose alone can cause the changes in Pax-3 expression observed during diabetic pregnancy and that the NTD rate rises with significant increases in blood glucose levels, suggesting that congenital malformations associated with diabetic pregnancy are caused by disruption of regulatory gene expression in the embryo in response to elevated glucose.
