New Publication Highlights Transient Increases in Creatinine or Tubular Injury Markers in Heart Failure Patients Should Not Dissuade Use of Ultrafiltration

Retrieved on: 
Thursday, August 8, 2019

The study supports that increases in serum creatinine should not be the major factor to dissuade decongestion by ultrafiltration or diuretics in patients where a therapeutic advantage may exist.

Key Points: 
  • The study supports that increases in serum creatinine should not be the major factor to dissuade decongestion by ultrafiltration or diuretics in patients where a therapeutic advantage may exist.
  • Even if creatinine worsened and tubular biomarkers increased, renal function usually recovered by 60 days.
  • Thus, changes in serum creatinine or kidney injury biomarkers should be discouraged as a surrogate endpoint in heart failure trials.
  • Study authors concluded that modest or transient increases in creatinine levels, or increases in renal tubule injury biomarkers were outweighed by the benefits of decongestion, which aligns with the review conducted by Drs.

"We sought to determine how frequently gaps in timely follow-up of abnormal creatinine/eGFR lab test results occur and to identify potential reasons for those gaps.

Key Points: 
  • "We sought to determine how frequently gaps in timely follow-up of abnormal creatinine/eGFR lab test results occur and to identify potential reasons for those gaps.
  • The eGFR test is the best way to estimate the level of kidney function and determine what further tests are needed.
  • The program serves as a back-up system to notify patients when they are overdue for follow-up of an abnormal creatinine/eGFR test.
  • African Americans are about 3 times more likely than Whites to develop end-stage kidney disease (ESKD or kidney failure).

Cardiovascular disease is a major risk factor and the leading cause of death for people living with T2D.

Key Points: 
  • Cardiovascular disease is a major risk factor and the leading cause of death for people living with T2D.
  • The participants had A1C levels of 6.5% to 10.0%, high CV risk (history of vascular disease and urine-albumin creatinine ratio [UACR] >200 mg/g) and a high renal risk (reduced eGFR and micro- or macroalbuminuria).
  • In the linagliptin group, 434 out of 3494 participants (12.4%) had a heart attack, stroke or died due to cardiovascular disease.
  • "This data is particularly important because it proves categorically the cardiovascular and kidney safety of linagliptin in those with type 2 diabetes who are at a high cardiovascular risk when some degree of kidney disease is associated.
