NCT07195747
Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is treated with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), or optimized medical therapy (OMT). Their cardiovascular outcomes are well studied, but renal effects remain unclear. Objective: To evaluate long-term renal outcomes of different CAD treatment strategies. Methods: In this retrospective cohort from the MASS registry, patients with stable multivessel CAD and preserved ventricular function underwent OMT, CABG, or PCI. Annual creatinine was measured for ≥5 years, and eGFR calculated using CKD-EPI. The primary endpoint was change in renal function over time. Secondary endpoints included new-onset CKD, progression to advanced CKD, dialysis, and mortality. Analyses will use mixed-effects models and Cox regression. Results: Over 1,700 patients met inclusion criteria. Longitudinal follow-up enables robust comparison of renal trajectories across treatment groups. Conclusions: This trial highlights renal function as a primary outcome in CAD management, aiming to inform integrated strategies for patients with concurrent cardiovascular and renal risk.
NCT06300086
Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) has recently updated the Clinical Practice Guideline for the Evaluation and Management of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). This update follows large placebo-controlled randomized trials, which established sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) as an additional treatment option to reduce the risk of progression to kidney failure and cardiovascular disease in patients with CKD, both with and without diabetes or albuminuria. As a result, SGLT2i is now recommended to a broad range of CKD patients by KDIGO, along with established medical therapies such as renin-angiotensin system inhibition (RASi). Despite the significant adverse consequences of CKD and substantial evidence supporting guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) to improve patient outcomes, awareness of CKD among patients and providers remains disproportionately low. Innovative solutions are needed to increase awareness of CKD. Such a solution could potentially be the use of electronic nudge letters delivered to patients with CKD and their general practitioners (GPs) that highlight the importance of GDMT and inform them of updated guidelines. This study will investigate whether digital nudge letters delivered via the official Danish electronic letter system directly to patients with CKD and their associated GPs will improve GDMT in patients with CKD when compared to no letters.
