Description
Abu and co-authors study in 2025 how common kidney disease is in older adults with a fast, uneven heart beat. Such patients face hard choices on drugs that thin the blood and cut stroke risk. The team also asks how kidney health links to use of those drugs and to major bleeding.
Patients aged sixty five and up were drawn from clinics in two states from 2016 to 2018. Of one thousand two hundred forty four patients, most had some loss of kidney work. The paper tracks drug use by kidney stage and counts major bleeds over two years of follow up.
