Mashup Score: 3
Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are considered the gold standard for assessing the safety and efficacy of medical interventions. Inconsistencies between the prespecified protocol and trial publication can reduce the internal validity of trials. In this study, we sought to assess the prevalence and characteristics of heart failure RCTs that report outcomes different from those prespecified. Of…

Mashup Score: 21High Output Heart Failure, Pulmonary Hypertension and Right Ventricular Failure in Patients with Arteriovenous Fistulas: A call to action - 2 year(s) ago
Cardiovascular disease is one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality among patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD). To this point, much of the literature has focused on the incidence and prognosis of atherosclerotic coronary disease and heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. More recently, the role of arteriovenous fistula (AVF) as a cause of high output heart failure (HOHF),…
