ABSTRACT:

Aims

This study aimed to assess the effect of blood pressure (BP) index, in terms of level and variability, on the progression of cardiovascular and renal diseases in patients with both heart failure (HF) and chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Methods and results

The study involved patients with HF and CKD from the database of the Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort (CRIC) study. The study endpoint includes the following: (i) primary endpoint, including cardiovascular disease (CVD) events, renal events, and all-cause death; (ii) CVD events; (iii) renal events; and (iv) all-cause death. Among 3939 participants in the CRIC study, a total of 382 patients were included. The duration of the follow-up was 6.3 ± 2.7 years, the age was 60.2 ± 8.9 years, and 57.6% were male. BP index inclu
