Abstract Background and Aims Emerging evidence has identified hypochloremia as an
independent predictor for mortality in multiple conditions including cirrhosis. Acute liver …

Background: Chloride is the most abundant anion in the human extracellular fluid and plays
a crucial role in maintaining homeostasis. Previous studies have demonstrated that …

Background Limited data suggest serum chloride levels associate with mortality in heart
failure, chronic kidney disease (CKD), and pulmonary arterial hypertension. Randomized …

BACKGROUND Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is a well-known target organ damage.
Concentric hypertrophy is the strongest predictor of increased risk of cardiovascular events …

Background Electrolyte abnormalities, particularly dysnatremia, are independent predictors
of adverse outcome in individuals with and without renal failure. However, the association of …

Abstract Background Serum chloride (Cl) levels confer better prognostic value than serum
sodium (Na) levels among patients with heart failure. Little is known about the relationship …

Blood pressure is determined by cardiac output and systemic vascular resistance, and
mediators that induce vasoconstriction will increase systemic vascular resistance and thus …

Aims Despite recent advances in guideline‐directed therapy, rehospitalization rates for
acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) remain high. Recently published studies …

Background Lower serum chloride is associated with a higher risk of mortality in the general
population. However, the association has received little attention in peritoneal dialysis …

Background: Hypochloremia reflects neuro-hormonal activation in patients with heart failure
(HF). However, the prognostic impact of persistent hypochloremia in those patients remains …
