Cardio-renal cachexia syndromes (CRCS): pathophysiological foundations of a vicious pathological circle
Heart failure (HF) is a clinical condition associated with poor prognosis and high hospitalisation rates due to exacerbation of the disease. Concomitant kidney abnormalities are frequent: Only 7% of chronic HF patients have a preserved kidney function, with the majority of patients having mild to moderate impairment of glomerular filtration rate [3]. Furthermore, acute HF syndromes are frequently complicated by acute kidney injury (AKI).

In both chronic and acute settings of HF, many studies have shown that worsening renal function is associated with dismal prognosis. These conditions are generally grouped under the umbrella term cardio-renal syndromes (CRS).
