Maladaptive responses between a failing heart and the kidneys ultimately lead to permanent chronic kidney disease, referred to as cardiorenal syndrome type 2. In this narrative review, we discuss the pathophysiological pathways in the progression of cardiorenal failure and review the current evidence on peritoneal dialysis as a treatment strategy in cardiorenal syndrome type 2. A patient with heart failure can present with clinical symptoms related to venous congestion even in the absence of end-stage renal disease. Diuretics remain the cornerstone for the treatment of fluid overload related to heart failure. However, with chronic use, diuretic resistance can supervene. When medical therapy is no longer able to relieve congestive symptoms, ultrafiltration might be needed. Patients with heart failure tolerate well the gentle rate of fluid removal through peritoneal dialysis. Recent publications suggest a positive impact of starting peritoneal dialysis in patients with cardiorenal syndrome type 2 on the hospitalisation rate, functional status and quality of life.

The combination of heart failure and renal failure is called cardiorenal syndrome. It is a stage of the cardiorenal continuum and, possibly, a small link of the cardiorenal-cerebral-metabolic axis. Despite the fact that the phrase “cardiorenal syndrome” and its five types have become a part of the medical lexicon, many aspects of this problem are still not clear. Cardiorenal syndrome can be diagnosed in 32-90.3% of patients with heart failure. Cardiorenal syndrome type 1 or 2 develops in most cases of heart failure: cardiorenal syndrome presents with the development ofchronic kidney disease in patients with chronic heart failure and acute kidney injury in patients with acute heart failure. Impaired renal function has an unfavorable prognostic value. It leads to an increase in the mortality of patients with heart failure. It is necessary to timely diagnose the presence of cardiorenal syndrome and take into account its presence when managing patients with heart failure. Further researches are needed on ways toprevent the development and prevent the progression of kidney damage in patients with heart failure, to which the efforts of the multidisciplinary team should be directed. The first part of this review examines the currently definition, classification, pathogenesis, epidemiology and prognosis of cardiorenal syndrome in patients with heart failure.

Background: In cardiorenal syndrome type 2 (CRS2), the role of systemic congestion in heart failure (HF) is still obscure. We studied a model of CRS2 [monocrotaline (MCT)-treated rats] secondary to pulmonary hypertension and right ventricular (RV) failure in order to evaluate the contribution of prevalent congestion to the development of kidney injury. Methods: Ten animals were treated with MCT for 4 weeks until they developed HF. Eleven animals were taken as controls. Signs of hypertrophy and dilatation of the right ventricle demonstrated the occurrence of HF. Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), serum creatinine (sCreatinine), both kidney and heart neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), matrix metallopeptidase 9 (MMP9), serum cytokines as well as kidney and heart cell death, as assessed by TUNEL, were studied. Results: Rats with HF showed higher BNP levels [chronic HF (CHF) 4.8 ± 0.5 ng/ml; controls 1.5 ± 0.2 ng/ml; p < 0.0001], marked RV hypertrophy and dilatation (RV mass/RV volume: CHF 1.46 ± 0.31, controls 2.41 ± 0.81; p < 0.01) as well as pleural and peritoneal effusions. A significant increase in proinflammatory cytokines and sCreatinine was observed (CHF 3.06 ± 1.3 pg/ml vs. controls 0.54 ± 0.23 pg/ml; p = 0.04). Serum (CHF 562.7 ± 93.34 ng/ml vs. controls 245.3 ± 58.19 ng/ml; p = 0.02) as well as renal and heart tissue NGAL levels [CHF 70,680 ± 4,337 arbitrary units (AU) vs. controls 32,120 ± 4,961 AU; p = 0.001] rose significantly, and they were found to be complexed with MMP9 in CHF rats. A higher number of kidney TUNEL-positive tubular cells was also detected (CHF 114.01 ± 45.93 vs. controls 16.36 ± 11.60 cells/mm2; p = 0.0004). Conclusion: In this model of CHF with prevalent congestion, kidney injury is characterized by tubular damage and systemic inflammation. The upregulated NGAL complexed with MMP9 perpetuates the vicious circle of kidney/heart damage by enhancing the enzymatic activity of MMP9 with extracellular matrix degradation, worsening heart remodeling.

<b>Introduction.</b> Diabetes mellitus and chronic heart failure (CHF) occur concomitantly, and each disease independently increases the risk for the other. In this connection, we studied the factors associated with CHF progression and proposed a mathematical model for assessing the prediction of the risk of CHF development, which can be applied in real clinical practice. <br><b>Patients and methods.</b> A total of 316 patients with DT2 were examined. The median age was 68 (63; 74) years. The levels of cystatin C, homocysteine, interleukin-6, and albumin/creatinine ratio were assessed in all patients with DT2. To evaluate the efficacy of this model, a retrospective analysis of patients’ medical records was carried out ("test sample"). The discriminant power (ROC) of the model in new cases of CHF was 0.91 (0.87; 1.00). Thus, it indicates a high predictive power of this method. <br><b>Results.</b> A model has been built to predict the likelihood of developing CHF in patients with DT2 (sensitivity 76.2%, specificity 73.3%). <br><b>Conclusions.</b> This model will allow for accurate prediction of the likelihood of developing CHF in patients with DT2. Further studies are needed to use it for choosing the optimal tactics for managing these patients.

The aim is to assess the existence and nature of the relationship between cytokine status on the basis of the determination of pro-inflammatory IL-1β, anti-IL-10, the functional state of the kidneys and the indicator fibrolysis MMP-9 in patients with CRS against the background of chronic heart failure and 2 diabetes type. The imbalance in the system of cytokines was associated with hyperactivity of antifibrotic factor MMP-9 in patients with CRS with a chronic heart failure and type 2 diabetes as a background. High levels of MMP-9 are involved in disorders of the functional state of kidneys, more pronounced changes in the tubulointerstitial component less - tubular. Study is to determine the prospects predictor’s values of MMP-9 in progress of CRS with the background of CHF and type 2 diabetes.
