High cumulative incidence of cancer in patients with cardio-renal-anaemia syndrome (chronic kidney disease)



Aims
The combination of chronic kidney disease (CKD), chronic heart failure (HF), and anaemia, the so-called cardio-renal-anaemia syndrome (CRA) is associated with dysregulation of erythropoietin levels and inflammation. Both have been associated with the development of cancer. This study aimed to determine the cumulative incidence of cancer in patients with CRA, as compared with anaemic CKD and control patients.
