Impact of renal denervation on cardiac remodeling in resistant hypertension: A meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: Twelve studies involving 433 patients were included. After RDN treatment, LVMI decreased by 13.08 g/m² (95% confidence interval [CI]: -18.38, -7.78; p < .00001), PWTd decreased by 0.60 mm (95% CI: -0.87, -0.34; p < .00001), IVSTd decreased by 0.78 mm (95% CI: -1.06, -0.49; p < .00001), and LVEF increased by 1.80% (95% CI: 0.71, 2.90; p = .001). However, there were no statistically significant improvements in LVIDd (95% CI: -1.40, 0.24; p = .17) and diastolic function (E/A) (95% CI: -0.04, 0.14; p = .28). Drug treatment for resistant hypertension (RH) is challenging. Renal denervation (RDN) is one of the most promising treatments for RH. Although studies have shown RDN can control blood pressure, the impacts of RDN on cardiac remodeling and cardiac function are unclear. This meta
