Reduced Estimated GFR and Cardiac Remodeling: A Population-Based Autopsy Study

Evidence suggests that cardiac remodeling, including left ventricular hypertrophy and myocardial fibrosis, develops with progression of kidney disease. Few studies have examined cardiac pathology across a range of estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFRs), which was the objective of this investigation.Population-based cross-sectional study of deceased patients undergoing autopsy.334 of 694 consecutive deceased patients undergoing autopsy...
