Cardiac Effects of Renin-Angiotensin System Inhibitors in Nonproteinuric CKD

In contrast to proteinuric chronic kidney disease (CKD), the relative cardioprotective benefits of antihypertensive medications in nonproteinuric CKD are unknown. We examined long-term cardiovascular outcomes and mortality in patients with nonproteinuric CKD treated with renin-angiotensin system inhibitors (RASIs) versus other antihypertensive medications.
