Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The number of patients with or at risk for coexisting kidney and heart diseases, often named “cardiorenal” or “renocardiac” syndromes, is increasing worldwide. A lot of studies documented higher mortality and significant morbidity in these kinds of patients. The interactions between kidney and heart diseases lead to a complex pathophysiology with typical disease features, and to the need for specific treatment and specialized care that may not be adequately addressed by cardiologists or nephrologists. Moreover, in addition to new drugs, recent advances in medical technologies and devices could offer the opportunity to improve treatments. Everywhere, independent of care settings, there is an urgent, unsatisfied need to take care of patients with combined kidney and heart diseases. In such a context, hypertension plays a pivotal role, since a significant fraction of these patients, in fact, exhibits higher blood pressure.

We are pleased to invite you to contribute to the empowerment of this important field of research with original research articles and reviews. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following: hypertension, CKD, HF, cardiorenal syndromes, diabetes mellitus in CKD and HF, and imaging in hypertension.

We look forward to receiving your contributions.
