Exclusive Live Symposium | Session number: 2003
Sunday, 29 August 2021, 16:50 - 17:20 CEST
Faculty: Stefan Anker, Michele Senni, Gerasimos Filippatos
The faculty described the impact of Mineralocorticoide Receptor Overactivation on cardiorenal morbidity in patients with CKD and T2D and recognised the need for novel treatments for the management of CKD in patients with T2D, including those that target MR overactivation. The symposium helped to understand how nonsteroidal MRAs can improve cardiorenal outcomes in patients with CKD in T2D.
