Clin J Am Soc Nephrol 8:355-62. 2013..A better understanding of changes in left ventricular mass and ejection fraction during the transition from CKD to ESRD may provide important insights to opportunities to improve cardiac outcomes...
Incident atrial fibrillation and risk of end-stage renal disease in adults with chronic kidney diseaseNisha Bansal
Division of Nephrology, Department of Medicine, University of California, San Francisco, 521 Parnassus Ave, Box 0532, San Francisco, CA 94143, USA

Association between kidney function and telomere length: the heart and soul studyNisha Bansal
Department of Medicine, University of California, San Francisco, USA
Am J Nephrol 36:405-11. 2012..Telomere attrition is a novel risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Studies of telomere length in relation to kidney function are limited. We explored the association of kidney function with telomere length and telomere shortening...

Does chronic kidney disease modify the association between body mass index and cardiovascular disease risk factorsNisha Bansal
Department of Medicine, University of California, San Francisco, California 94143, USA
J Nephrol 25:317-24. 2012..To test this hypothesis, we determined the relationship between BMI and CVD risk factors in patients with and without CKD...
Relation of body mass index to urinary creatinine excretion rate in patients with coronary heart diseaseNisha Bansal
Department of Medicine, University of California, San Francisco, USA
Am J Cardiol 108:179-84. 2011..In conclusion, low muscle mass and low BMI are each associated with greater all-cause mortality, but low muscle mass does not appear to explain why CHD patients with low BMIs have worse prognosis...

Department of Medicine, University of California San Francisco, CA, USA
BMC Nephrol 12:44. 2011..It is unclear whether differential cardiovascular drug use explains, in part, the excess risk of cardiovascular events and death in patients with CKD and coronary heart disease (CHD)...
Anemia as a risk factor for kidney function decline in individuals with heart failureNisha Bansal
Division of Nephrology, Tufts New England Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts, USA
Am J Cardiol 99:1137-42. 2007..03 to 1.31) of rapid decrease (p for interaction <0.001). In conclusion, anemia is associated with a rapid decrease in kidney function in patients with heart failure, particularly in those with underlying CKD...

Am J Kidney Dis 48:392-401. 2006..Concurrently, CVD may promote CKD, resulting in a vicious cycle. We evaluated this hypothesis by exploring whether CKD and CVD have an additive or synergistic effect on future cardiovascular and mortality outcomes...
