Does Chronic Kidney Disease Facilitate Malignant Myocardial Fibrosis in Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction of Hypertensive Origin?

Does Chronic Kidney Disease Facilitate Malignant Myocardial Fibrosis in Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction of Hypertensive Origin?

In hypertensive patients with heart failure (HF) a serum biomarker combination of high carboxy-terminal propeptide of procollagen type-I (PICP) and low carboxy-terminal telopeptide of collagen type-I to matrix metalloproteinase-1 (CITP:MMP-1) ratio identifies a histomolecular phenotype of malignant...
