Topics included epidemiology, pathophysiology, disgnosis,
prevention, and treatment, focusing on areas of elisical
relevance: (1) coronary artery disease (CAD) and myocanlial
infarction (1); (2) congestive heart flue (CHF); (3)
cerebrovatcular dseste,strake, atrial elation, peripheral

fmportant, independent risk factor for CVD. Many paticnts

Reasons for these adverse associations are not well under-
stood ars are thus the subject of controveny. Whether CVD
events differ in patients with and without CKD is poorly
fined. Similasly, whether diferences ia CVD in CKD
