Novel Renal Biomarkers to Assess Cardiorenal Syndrome

Biomarkers and physiopathology in the cardiorenal syndrome.

Acute cardiorenal syndrome (CRS) corresponds to an association of acute heart failure and a worsening of renal function. The detection of acute kidney injury (AKI) unfortunately occurs at a late stage of CRS, leading to an increased mortality of the patients. In this review, we described the pathophysiology of CRS and discussed the potential interest of biochemical biomarkers (namely creatinine...

Novel Biomarkers for Cardio-renal Syndrome

Cardio-renal syndrome (CRS) is a frequent and life-threatening syndrome. It is a disorder of the heart and kidneys in which acute or chronic dysfunction in one organ may induce acute or chronic dysfunction in the other organ. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is strongly associated with increased morbidity and mortality in patients with CRS. Early detection of renal dysfunction is not possible using th...

Biomarqueurs du syndrome cardiorénal Biomarkers of cardiorenal syndrome

Complex interactions existing between cardiac and renal diseases led to define 5 types of so-called cardiorenal syndromes. This classification is based on the organ primarily involved and the acute or chronic failure. The mutual impact of renal and cardiac functions makes it difficult to evaluate and manage patients with cardiorenal syndromes and worsen morbidity and mortality. This review seek...

Biomarkers in cardiorenal syndromes.

Cardiac and renal diseases often coexist and patients with cardiac and renal failure have high morbidity and mortality. Cardiorenal syndromes (CRSs) are disorders of the heart and kidneys whereby dysfunction in one organ may induce dysfunction in the other organ. Five subtypes of CRSs have been defined by the Acute Dialysis Quality Initiative Consensus Group. There is a need for early detection...
