Abstract
Chronic Cardiovascular and Kidney Disorder (CCKD) represents a growing challenge in healthcare, characterized by the complex interplay between heart and kidney diseases. This manuscript delves into the "butterfly effect" in CCKD, a phenomenon in which acute injuries in one organ lead to progressive dysfunction in the other. Through extensive review, we explore the pathophysiology underlying this effect, emphasizing the roles of acute kidney injury (AKI) and heart failure (HF) in exacerbating each other. We highlight emerging therapies, such as renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) inhibitors, SGLT2 inhibitors, and GLP1 agonists, that show promise in mitigating the progression of CCKD. Additionally, we discuss novel therapeutic targets, including Galectin-3 inhibition and IL33/ST2 pathway modulation, and their potential in altering the course of CCKD. Our comprehensive analysis underscores the importance of recognizing and treating the intertwined nature of cardiac and renal dysfunctions, paving the way for more effective management strategies for this multifaceted syndrome.
