Background The significance of worsening renal function (WRF) in patients admitted for
acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) is still controversial. We hypothesised that …

Aims The prognostic impact of worsening renal function (WRF) in patients with acute heart
failure (AHF) remains under debate. Successful decongestion might offset the negative …

Aims In acute heart failure (AHF), relationships between changes in B‐type natriuretic
peptide (BNP) and worsening renal function (WRF) and its prognostic implications have not …

Aims Worsening renal function (WRF) occurs in one-third of patients hospitalized for acute
decompensated heart failure. Recently, WRF was categorized in two subtypes: persistent …

Aims Our purpose was to investigate the association between the B‐type natriuretic peptide
(BNP) level at discharge, the occurrence of worsening renal function (WRF), and long‐term …

Objectives: The aim of this study was to analyze the dynamic changes in renal function in
combination with dynamic changes in N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) …

Background About a fourth of acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) patients develop
renal dysfunction during their admission. To date, the association of ADHF treatment with the …

Objective Worsening renal function (WRF) is common in patients treated for acute heart
failure (AHF) and might be associated with a significant increase in blood nitrogen urea …

Background: In order to predict the occurrence of worsening renal function (WRF) and of
WRF plus in-hospital death, 101 emergency department (ED) patients with acute …

Background Acute declines in kidney function occur in approximately 20%-30% of patients
with acute decompensated heart failure, but its significance is unclear, and the importance of …
