Biography

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the first cause of mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease. Identifying patients at high risk for CVD is a diagnostic challenge for nephrologists and other clinicians. In the last decades, new biomarkers of myocardial damage have appeared, such as cardiac troponins. Their prognostic value has been widely studied in patients with impaired renal function.
