In view of the rising burden of hypertension, diabetes mellitus and CKD on a global scale, there is currently a great need for drugs that can effectively prevent the onset and reverse or slow down the progression of CKD in diverse patient populations. Over the last decades, a growing body of evidence has demonstrated that calcium channel blockers (CCBs) can exert cardioprotective and nephroprotective actions. In the present narrative review, we aimed to specifically describe the cardiorenal protective effects of dihydropyridine CCBs (particularly lercanidipine and manidipine, based on the available evidence) and non-dihydropyridine CCBs (verapamil and diltiazem). With regard to this research topic, we also reviewed the 2023 European Society of Hypertension (ESH) Guidelines for the management of arterial hypertension [endorsed by the International Society of Hypertension (ISH) and the European Renal Association (ERA)] and the 2023 European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Guidelines for the management of cardiomyopathies.

The searchs were performed separately for studies investigating humanistic and economic burden and those investigating environmental and sociodemographic impact, using a predefined search strategy. Study selection was based on the population, interventions, comparisons, outcomes, and study design framework. Data extraction from full-text publications was conducted using a standardized Microsoft Excel© template.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Fifty-two studies reporting the humanistic and economic burden and 11 studies reporting the environmental and sociodemographic impact were identified. Patients with severe vs non-severe asthma had lower quality of life (QoL). As expected, the impact of asthma on healthcare resource utilization and costs increased with disease severity. More frequent hospitalizations, emergency department visits, longer hospital length of stay, and higher frequency of exacerbations were seen in severe vs non-severe asthma. Eleven studies reported on factors such as air pollution and their association with increased risk of asthma severity, and there is a lack of evidence specifically addressing its impact on severe asthma.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Severe asthma imposes significant economic and humanistic burdens on patients and healthcare systems. Both environmental and sociodemographic factors exacerbate asthma severity and should be further investigated to ensure optimal asthma management. Gaps remain in our knowledge of the impact of climate change on the most vulnerable patients with severe disease and our review highlights aspects of this burden that are still to be fully understood.</p>","PeriodicalId":10814,"journal":{"name":"Current Medical Research and Opinion","volume":" ","pages":"1075-1095"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144274328","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
