An increasing body of evidence demonstrates that atherosclerosis shares similarities with other inflammatory/autoimmune diseases. Chronic autoimmune disorders such as systemic lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis (RA), characterized by chronic relapsing–remitting systemic inflammation, are recognized as risk factors for accelerated atherosclerosis. Therapies directed towards inflammatory processes crucially reduce cardiovascular disease morbidity and mortality in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus and patients with RA. Furthermore, RA and other inflammatory diseases are associated with an increased incidence of acute coronary syndromes and poorer outcome. In this chapter, the major evidence in this field and the most important pathophysiological and therapeutic future prospects are critically discussed.

Cardiorenal syndromes (CRS) describe the dynamic inter-relationship between heart and kidney malfunction. Recent studies have clearly defined its various types and pathophysiology. Improved survival, cardiovascular risk factors (diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia), diagnostic and therapeutic intervention are some contributors in its causation. Types 1 and 2 CRS involve acute and chronic cardiovascular disease (CVD) scenarios leading to acute kidney injury or accelerated chronic kidney disease. Types 3 and 4 CRS describe acute and chronic kidney disease leading primarily to heart failure, although it is possible that acute coronary syndromes, stroke, and arrhythmias could be CVD outcomes in these forms of CRS. Finally, CRS type 5 describes a simultaneous insult to both heart and kidneys, such as sepsis, where both organs are injured simultaneously. This article focuses on different types, pathophysiology, novel biomarkers, preventive and treatment aspects of cardiorenal syndromes.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jom.v16i1.22400 J MEDICINE 2015; 16 : 39-45
