Heart failure is the most common cardiovascular complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and foreshadows a high morbidity and mortality rate. Baroreflex impairment likely contributes to cardiovascular mortality. We aimed to study the associations between CKD, heart failure, and baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) and their association with cardiovascular outcomes.
