Cardiovascular autonomic dysfunction is a major complication of chronic kidney disease
(CKD), likely contributing to the high incidence of cardiovascular mortality in this patient …

Arterial hypertension is very common in children with all stages of chronic kidney disease
(CKD). While fluid overload and activation of the renin–angiotensin system have long been …

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major factor contributing to cardiovascular (CV) morbidity

Objective: We attempt to identify heart rate variability (HRV) components and decide
whether or not such components are more sensitive to the hemodialysis (HD) process by …

Antipsychotics are associated with cardiovascular risk, but the relationship between their
anticholinergic properties and cardiac function is not clear. We hypothesize that …

Patients receiving regular hemodialysis sessions have been known to suffer from fatigue
and depression. This experiment was designed to determine the effects of far infrared ray …

Background Within-class comparative effectiveness studies of β-blockers have not been
performed in the chronic dialysis setting. With widespread cardiac disease in these patients …

Objectives We aimed to determine the effect of propanolol on heart rate variability (HRV) in
