Title: | The Effect of Fibrates on Kidney Function and Chronic Kidney Disease Progression: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomised Studies | Authors: | Hadjivasilis, Alexandros Kouis, Panayiotis Kousios, Andreas Panayiotou, Andrie G. |
Major Field of Science: | Medical and Health Sciences | Field Category: | MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES | Keywords: | Cardivacular disease;Fibrates;Proteinuria;Renal function | Issue Date: | 31-Jan-2022 | Source: | Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2022, vol. 11, no. 3, pp. 1-15 | Volume: | 11 | Issue: | 3 | Start page: | 1 | End page: | 15 | Journal: | Journal of Clinical Medicine | Abstract: | Fibrates have proven efficacy in cardiovascular risk reduction and are commonly used, in addition to statins, to control hypertriglyceridaemia. Their use is often limited due to reduction in glomerular filtration rate at treatment initiation. However, recent studies suggest benign changes in kidney function and improvement of proteinuria, an established early marker of microvascular disease and kidney disease progression. We summarize the evidence from existing trials and provide a summary of effects of fibrates, alone or in combination, on kidney disease progression and proteinuria. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14279/29770 | ISSN: | 20770383 | DOI: | 10.3390/jcm11030768 | Rights: | © by the authors | Type: | Article | Affiliation : | Cyprus University of Technology University of Cyprus Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust Imperial College London |
