Figure 1. Relationship between changes in renal function and clinical outcomes.

Figure 1

Relationship between the percent change in eGFR from baseline to 72 hours and the composite outcome of death, rehospitalization, or emergency room visit within 60 days in patients admitted with acute decompensated heart failure and enrolled in a clinical trial of diuretic strategies. The solid blue line represents a hazard ratio of 1. CI: confidence interval; eGFR: estimated glomerular filtration rate; ER: emergency room.
