Why the study?
Resting heart rate has been associated with cardiovascular risk, but data regarding renal outcomes remain scarce.
Does elevated resting heart rate predict rapid renal function decline in Asian individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus?
Does elevated resting heart rate predict rapid renal function decline in Asian individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus?
Elevated resting heart rate independently predicts rapid renal function decline in individuals with type 2 diabetes, particularly in those with concurrent increased arterial stiffness.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Resting heart rate may stratify renal risk in T2DM with stiffness; leaves open causal effects and need for intervention trials.
Liu et al. (2019) studied this question.
