Vascular function assessed with cardiovascular magnetic resonance predicts survival in patients with advanced chronic kidney disease

BACKGROUND: Increased arterial stiffness is associated with mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) permits assessment of the central arteries to measure aortic function. METHODS: We studied the relationship between central haemodynamics and outcome...
