Abstract
BACKGROUND Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent stem cells that are able to differentiate into multiple lineages including bone, cartilage, muscle and fat. They hold immunomodulatory properties and therapeutic ability to treat multiple diseases, including autoimmune and chronic degenerative diseases. In this article, we reviewed the different biological properties, applications and clinical trials of MSCs. Also, we discussed the basics of manufacturing conditions, quality control, and challenges facing MSCs in the clinical setting. METHODS Extensive review of the literature was conducted through the databases PubMed, Google Scholar, and Cochrane. Papers published since 2015 and covering the clinical applications and research of MSC therapy were considered. Furthermore, older papers were considered when referring to pioneering studies in the field. RESULTS The most widely studied stem cells in cell therapy and tissue repair are bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells. Adipose tissue-derived stem cells became more common and to a lesser extent other stem cell sources e.g., foreskin derived MSCs. MSCs therapy were also studied in the setting of COVID-19 infections, ischemic strokes, autoimmune diseases, tumor development and graft rejection. Multiple obstacles, still face the standardization and optimization of MSC therapy such as the survival and the immunophenotype and the efficiency of transplanted cells. MSCs used in clinical settings displayed heterogeneity in their function despite their extraction from healthy donors and expression of similar surface markers. CONCLUSION Mesenchymal stem cells offer a rising therapeutic promise in various diseases. However, their potential use in clinical applications requires further investigation.

Abstract
PURPOSE Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have an associated burden of coronary artery disease, including chronic total occlusions (CTO). It is unclear how the presence of CKD affects the outcomes of CTO revascularization. Previous reviews have not taken into account all relevant published studies that examined the association of CKD with outcomes of CTO revascularization. METHODS A systematic search was conducted using PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar databases for studies investigating patients with or without CKD who also had coronary chronic total occlusion undergoing revascularization procedures Statistical analysis was performed using STATA software. Effect sizes were reported as pooled relative risk (RR). RESULTS A total of 13 studies were included. CKD patients showed elevated risk of in-hospital mortality (RR 4.25, 95% CI 2.64, 6.82) and mortality at latest follow-up (RR 3.24, 95% CI 2.56, 4.11), elevated risk of major cardio or cerebrovascular events (RR 1.65, 95% CI 1.38, 1.98), major bleeding (RR 2.85, 95% CI 1.96, 4.13), and contrast-induced acute kidney injury (RR 3.06, 95% CI 1.70, 5.52). CKD patients also showed lower chances of technical success (RR 0.95, 95% CI 0.91, 1.00). CONCLUSIONS The presence of CKD increases the risk of mortality, complications and adversely affects the success of CTO revascularization. Patients with CKD undergoing revascularization should have their kidney function comprehensively evaluated and these patients should be carefully monitored.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We conducted this study to ascertain whether chronic inflammation secondary to chronic pancreatitis (CP) has any association with myocardial infarction(MI). METHODS Data were collected from a commercial database (Explorys, Inc, IBM Watson, Ohio). Adults with the diagnosis of "chronic pancreatitis," based on Systematized Nomenclature of Medicine-Clinical Terms, were included in the CP group, and the rest of the patients were included in the non-CP group. The prevalence of MI was compared in both groups, and statistical multivariate model was performed. RESULTS A total of 28,842,210 patients were included in the study. The overall prevalence of MI was 14.22% in the CP group as compared with 3.23% in the non-CP group (P < 0.0001). In the multivariate analysis, the odds ratio (OR) for MI in CP group was 1.453 (95% confidence interval, 1.418-1.488, P < 0.0001). Hypertension was a strong predictor for MI in the CP group with an OR of 3.2 (95% confidence interval, 3.0-3.5), followed by chronic kidney disease, older than 65 years, dyslipidemia, diabetes mellitus, obesity, alcohol abuse, smoking, White race, and male sex. CONCLUSIONS This study showed that CP is associated with comorbidities, which can increase the prevalence and OR of MI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Obesity and related health risk in different obesity phenotypes has always been a controversial subject. The present study was conducted with the aim of investigating the risk of kidney function decline (KFD) incidence in different abdominal obesity phenotypes. METHODS In this prospective observational cohort study, 7002 individuals (56.1% female), aged ≥20 years, were followed for the incidence of KFD defined as 40% decline in eGFR. Abdominal obesity was defined based on waist circumference cut-offs ≥89/91cm for men/women, respectively. Metabolic health was defined as ≤1 criterion of the metabolic syndrome criteria, according to the Joint Interim Statement (JIS) definition. RESULTS At baseline 4273 individuals (61.0%) were abdominally obese, among whom, 1188 (27.8%) belonged to the metabolically healthy abdominal obese (MHAO) phenotype. Totally, 251 incidences of KFD was indicated throughout the 12-year follow-up. After adjusting for the confounding variables, MHAO phenotype was not associated with increased risk of KFD in both males and females. Furthermore, results indicated that hazard ratios (HRs) for incidence of KFD did not increase in males with unhealthy obesity phenotypes. However, females with metabolically unhealthy abdominal obese (MUAO) phenotype had increased risk of KFD. CONCLUSION Findings of this study indicated that MHAO phenotype was not associated with KFD incidence, regardless of the participants gender. Furthermore, MUAO phenotype was associated with higher risk of KFD only in females. Further studies with longer follow up and larger sample size are needed to shed more light upon the regarded relationship and the influential role of gender.

[PMID: 31581569 PMCID: PMC6832285 DOI: 10.3390/jcm8101576] [Citation(s) in RCA: 33] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2019] [Revised: 09/22/2019] [Accepted: 09/25/2019] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Frailty and sarcopenia increase the risk of complications and mortality when invasive treatment such as cardiac surgery is performed. Growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15) involves various pathophysiological conditions including renal dysfunction, heart failure and cachexia. We investigated the pathophysiological roles of preoperative GDF-15 levels in cardiovascular surgery patients. Preoperative skeletal muscle index (SMI) determined by bioelectrical impedance analysis, hand-grip strength, 4 m gait speed, and anterior thigh muscle thickness (TMth) measured by echocardiography were assessed in 72 patients (average age 69.9 years) who underwent cardiovascular surgery. The preoperative serum GDF-15 concentration was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Circulating GDF-15 level was correlated with age, brain natriuretic peptide, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). It was also negatively correlated with SMI, hand-grip strength, and anterior TMth. In multivariate analysis, eGFR and anterior TMth were the independent determinants of GDF-15 concentration even after adjusting for age, sex, and body mass index. Alternatively, the GDF-15 level was an independent determinant of eGFR and anterior TMth. We concluded that preoperative GDF-15 levels reflect muscle wasting as well as renal dysfunction in preoperative cardiovascular surgery patients. GDF-15 may be a novel biomarker for identify high-risk patients with muscle wasting and renal dysfunction before cardiovascular surgery.

Abstract
Major cardiovascular events are a common complication in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Endothelial dysfunction can contribute to the cardiovascular injury observed in CKD. Here, we used a rat model of acute kidney injury to CKD transition to investigate heart alterations in the pathway activating endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and its impact on the cardiac injury observed during CKD progression. Fifty male Wistar rats were subjected to sham surgery ( n = 25) or bilateral renal ischemia-reperfusion (IR-CKD) for 45 min ( n = 25). Rats were studied on a monthly basis up to 5 mo ( n = 5). In another set of sham and IR-CKD rats, l-arginine was administered starting on the third month after renal ischemia. CKD development and cardiac alterations were monitored in all groups. CKD was characterized by a progressive increase in proteinuria and renal dysfunction that was evident after the fifth month of followup. Heart hypertrophy was observed starting on the fourth month after ischemia-reperfusion. There was a significant increase in brain natriuretic peptide levels. In the heart, IR-CKD rats had increased eNOS phosphorylation at threonine 495 and reduced eNOS-heat shock protein-90α interactions. l-Arginine administration prevented the heart alterations observed during CKD and increased eNOS coupling/dimerization and activation. In summary, CKD progression is accompanied by cardiac hypertrophy, fibrosis, oxidative stress, and increased brain natriuretic peptide levels. These alterations were associated with limited eNOS activation in the heart, which may result in reduced nitric oxide bioavailability and contribute to cardiac injury during CKD.

Abstract
The prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) has increased markedly over past decades due to the aging of the worldwide population. Despite the progress in the prevention and treatment, the cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and mortality remain high among patients with CKD. Although CKD is a progressive and irreversible condition, it is possible to slow decreasing kidney function, as well as the development and progression of associated with kidney disease comorbidities. Diabetes mellitus has become major cause of CKD worldwide. It is estimated that the prevalence of diabetes will increase from 425 million worldwide in 2017 to 629 million by 2045, substantially the percentage of diabetic nephropathy among CKD patients is set to rise markedly. The results of multicenter trials concerning novel antidiabetic drugs suggest that efficacy in reducing CV risk is independent of the improvement in glycemic control. This review discusses underlying causes of high CV risk and strategies reducing individual burden among CKD patients.

Abstract
In recent years, the very high worldwide prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) has led some authors to talk of an "epidemic." The progression of CKD varies considerably among individuals despite similar aetiologies, optimal blood pressure, and glycaemic control. Over the last decade, through genome-wide association studies (GWAS), more than 50 genetic loci have been identified in association with CKD. Understanding the genetic basis of CKD could provide a better knowledge of the biology of the involved pathways, thus potentially leading to novel tools for the diagnosis, prevention, and therapy of CKD. In this review, we will analyse the role of GWAS in the study of CKD.

Abstract
Cardiorenal syndrome type 4 (CRS type 4), or chronic renocardiac syndrome, has been defined as "chronic abnormalities in renal function leading to cardiac disease" and recognizes the extreme burden of cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). CKD is common and increasingly recognized as a risk factor for CVD. Even though the treatment for CVD has dramatically improved over the past decades, it still takes responsibility for up to 50% of deaths in CKD patients. For this reason, patients with CKD should be thoroughly evaluated for cardiovascular risk factors that require careful management, given the significant burden of CRS type 4 on the healthcare system. This review focuses on the most significant conventional and non-conventional CVD risk factors related to CKD.

Abstract
AIMS The aim of this study was to assess the influence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) classification on clinical outcomes in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). METHODS AND RESULTS Data of 2,929 consecutive patients undergoing TAVI in the FRANCE 2 registry were analysed. Patients were divided into five groups: CKD 1+2, 3a, 3b, 4, and 5. Both 30-day and one-year mortality rates were significantly increased and positively correlated with CKD severity in all groups. After adjusting for significant influential confounders in a Cox regression multivariate model, CKD 4 and 5 were associated with increased risk of both 30-day mortality and one-year mortality when compared with CKD 1+2 as the reference. This higher mortality was predominantly driven by renal failure and infection in patients with CKD 4 and 5, respectively. Procedural success rate in CKD 5 was significantly lower than that in other groups. All CKD patients trended towards a higher incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI), in parallel with the degree of CKD severity. CONCLUSIONS Classification of CKD stages before TAVI allows risk stratification for 30-day and one-year clinical outcomes. CKD 3b, 4 and 5 correlate with poor outcome and are considered a significant risk for TAVI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Elevated heart rate (HR) has been indicated as risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Experimental data support a role of HR in the progression and severity of atherosclerotic lesions. Sinus tachycardia is common in heart transplant patients due to the lack of autonomic control. This study assessed the role of HR in the development of cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) in heart transplant recipients. METHODS Data from 244 allograft recipients were analyzed. Known factors affecting CAV and mean HR obtained from 24-hour recordings at 1 year (dichotomized at ≥90 beats/min) were tested in univariate and multivariable Cox analysis. RESULTS During a median of 96 months, 60 patients (25%) experienced CAV. Surprisingly, HR < 90 but not ≥90 beats/min was significantly associated with an increased CAV development. Univariate analysis showed several predictors were associated with the end point; however, at multivariable analysis, only donor's age, chronic renal failure, and left ventricular end-diastolic wall thickness were significant predictors of CAV, with hazard ratios of 1.02 (95% confidence interval, 1.00-1.04), 1.90 (1.13-3.21), and 1.11 (1.00-1.22), respectively. A highly statistically significant difference in donor's age was found among patients with mean heart rate ≥90 or <90 beats/min (30 ± 13 vs 40 ± 14 years, p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS In the denervated heart, sinus tachycardia is not a risk factor for coronary atherosclerosis. HR in heart transplant recipients reflects "intrinsic heart rate" and is a simple epiphenomenon of the donor's age.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The impact of the degree of renal dysfunction (RD) in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) ranging from normal to dialysis-dependence is not well defined. METHODS A retrospective review of 14,199 patients undergoing isolated, primary CABG from January 1996 to May 2009 at Emory Healthcare was performed. The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was estimated by the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease formula: mild RD (eGFR 60 to 90 mL/min/1.73 m2), moderate RD (eGFR 30 to 59), severe RD (eGFR<30). A propensity scoring was used to balance the groups with 46 preoperative covariates. Multivariable logistic and Cox regression methods were used to determine the independent association of eGFR with mortality. Adjusted odds ratios were calculated for outcomes using the normal eGFR group as the reference. Kaplan-Meier curves were created to estimate long-term survival. RESULTS A total of 8,086 patients (57.0%) underwent off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) while 6,113 (43.0%) underwent on-pump CAB. Preoperative RD was common: Normal eGFR (n=3,503/14,199 [24.7%]); mild RD (7,236/14199 [51.0%]); moderate RD (2,860/14,199 [20.1%]); severe RD (283/14,199 [2.0%]); and preoperative dialysis (317/14,199 [2.2%]). Moderate to severe RD or preoperative dialysis was associated with worse adjusted in-hospital mortality: mild RD (odds ratio [OR] 1.42; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.93 to 2.16; p=not significant); moderate RD (OR 3.55; 95% CI 2.32 to 5.43; p<0.05]; severe RD (OR 8.84; 95% CI 4.92 to 15.9; p<0.05); and dialysis-dependent (OR 9.64; 95% CI 5.45 to 17.0; p<0.05). Adjusted long-term survival was worse across levels of RD. The OPCAB patients with moderate to severe RD had worse long-term survival than on-pump CAB patients; however, the surgery types were similar among normal, mild, and dialysis patients. CONCLUSIONS Preoperative RD is common in the CABG population and is associated with diminished long-term survival. Improved early outcomes in patients with RD undergoing OPCAB diminished with worsening RD.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Patients with SLE have an excess risk compared with the general population; this is particularly pronounced in younger women with SLE who have an excess risk of over 50-fold compared with population controls. There is a higher prevalence of subclinical atherosclerosis in patients with SLE compared with controls, as demonstrated by a variety of imaging modalities discussed in this review. The causality of the excess risk of CVD and subclinical atherosclerosis is multifactorial in patients with SLE. While traditional risk factors play a role, after controlling for the traditional Framingham risk factors, the excess risk is still 7.5-fold greater than the general population. This review will also cover novel cardiovascular risk factors and some SLE-specific variables that contribute to CVD risk. This review discusses the risk factor modification and the evidence available for treatment of these risk factors in SLE. There have not yet been any published randomized, controlled trials in patients with SLE with respect to CVD risk factor modifications. Thus, the treatment and management recommendations are based largely on published guidelines for other populations at high risk for CVD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic nephropathy is the leading cause of kidney failure in the United States. The extent to which an elevated glycated hemoglobin (HbA(1c)) concentration is associated with increased risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in the absence of albuminuria and retinopathy, the hallmarks of diabetic nephropathy, is uncertain. METHODS Glycated hemoglobin concentration was measured in 1871 adults with diabetes mellitus followed up for 11 years in the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study. Incident CKD was defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate less than 60 mL/min/1.73 m(2) after 6 years of follow-up or a kidney disease-related hospitalization. We categorized HbA(1c) concentrations into 4 clinically relevant categories. Albuminuria and retinopathy were measured midway through follow-up. RESULTS Higher HbA(1c) concentrations were strongly associated with risk of CKD in models adjusted for demographic data, baseline glomerular filtration rate, and cardiovascular risk factors. Compared with HbA(1c) concentrations less than 6%, HbA(1c) concentrations of 6% to 7%, 7% to 8%, and greater than 8% were associated with adjusted relative hazard ratios (95% confidence intervals) of 1.4 (0.97-1.91), 2.5 (1.70-3.66), and 3.7 (2.76-4.90), respectively. Risk of CKD was higher in individuals with albuminuria and retinopathy, and the association between HbA(1c) concentration and incident CKD was observed even in participants without either abnormality: adjusted relative hazards, 1.46 (95% confidence intervals, 0.80-2.65), 1.17 (0.43-3.19), and 3.51 (1.67-7.40), respectively; P(trend) = .004. CONCLUSIONS We observed a positive association between HbA(1c) concentration and incident CKD that was strong, graded, independent of traditional risk factors, and present even in the absence of albuminuria and retinopathy. Hyperglycemia is an important indicator of risk of both diabetic nephropathy with albuminuria or retinopathy and of less specific forms of CKD.

Abstract
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) often experience anemia, which causes fatigue and diminished quality of life. In addition, anemia in CKD has been associated with increased risk for cardiovascular events and left ventricular hypertrophy. To the extent that anemia plays a causal role in these relationships, treatment with erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) could potentially help improve outcomes. To date, however, results from interventional studies have been disappointing in this regard. This article reviews the relationship between anemia in CKD and cardiovascular risk and explores current knowledge on ESA treatment.

Abstract
Substantial evidence demonstrates a link of increased plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) and glomerulosclerosis and kidney fibrosis, providing a novel therapeutic option for prevention and treatment of chronic kidney diseases. Several mechanisms contributing to increased PAI-1 will be addressed, including classic key profibrotic factors such as the renin-angiotensin-system (RAS) and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-b???and novel molecules identified by proteomic analysis, such as thymosin- b4. The fibrotic sequelae caused by increased PAI-1 in kidney depend not only on its classic inhibition of tissue-type and urokinase-type plasminogen activators (tPA and uPA), but also its influence on cell migration.

Abstract
The triad of chronic kidney disease, heart failure and anemia is well described and frequently encountered in clinical practice. While individually these disease states are associated with significant morbidity and mortality, the presence of the triad portends an even worse prognosis. Anemia is prevalent among cohorts of patients with chronic kidney disease and heart failure, indicating that its presence may serve as a central unifying hypothesis to explain poor outcomes in these populations. Observational and interventional trials of erythropoietin-stimulating agents, however, have had variable results on cardiovascular end points. Data are now emerging that suggest that treating erythropoietin deficiency in and of itself may be as or more important than the absolute levels of hemoglobin attained. Future research in this arena must focus on the optimal dose of erythropoietin administered to hemoglobin level achieved that will result in improved cardiovascular outcomes for patients with heart failure and kidney disease.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD), which is becoming increasingly prevalent in the US and worldwide, eventually progresses to end-stage renal disease (ESRD), requiring renal replacement therapy. Diabetes and hypertension, the two leading causes of CKD, are themselves reaching near epidemic proportions. Hypertension can cause both the development and progression of CKD, and CKD is a significant risk factor for the development of cardiovascular disease. Indeed, CKD patients are more likely to die of cardiovascular complications than progress to ESRD. However, data indicate that early recognition and management of CKD can have a significant positive impact on disease outcome. This creates an important interventional opportunity for the primary care physician. This report describes the major risk factors and comorbidities associated with the development and progression of CKD and offers suggestions for timely diagnosis and management of CKD in the primary care setting.
