The kidney exerts multiple functions, and pathophysiological interactions between the
kidney and the heart have important clinical implications, but it has only recently become
clear that these interactions should be studied across the whole spectrum of reduced kidney
function and not only in cases with severe, end-stage renal disease (ESRD), as has been
done for many years. 1 The prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD), defined as a
glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of, 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 for. 3 months, exceeds 10% in the …
