Our aim was to report the effect of the beta-blocker carvedilol on cardiac biomarkers in adult dialysis patients. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Methods:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; The Beta-Blocker to Lower Cardiovascular Dialysis Events Feasibility Study was a randomized controlled trial comparing carvedilol to placebo. Serum and plasma were collected before the run-in, then 6 and 12 months post-randomization to measure B-type Natriuretic Peptide (BNP), N-terminal BNP (NT-ProBNP), high-sensitivity cardiac troponins I (hs-TnI) and T (hs-TnT), and galectin-3. Left ventricular global longitudinal strain (GLS) was measured by echocardiography at baseline. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Results:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; Seventy-two participants were recruited of whom 49 completed the run-in and were randomized to carvedilol (n=26) or placebo (n=23). Baseline echocardiography demonstrated median (inter-quartile range) GLS of -14.27% (-16.63 to -11.93). NTproBNP and hs-TnT correlated with GLS (Spearman\u2019s rho=0.34 [p=0.018] and rho=0.28 [p=0.049], respectively). Median change scores from baseline to 12 months did not differ significantly between participants with complete biomarker data randomized to carvedilol (n=15) or placebo (n=16) for any biomarkers. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Conclusions:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; NT-proBNP and hs-TnT were associated with GLS. However, changes in levels of the biomarkers from baseline to 12 months were not different between groups randomized to carvedilol and placebo.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000485589","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,12,1]],"date-time":"2017-12-01T22:04:22Z","timestamp":1512165862000},"page":"1033-1044","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Carvedilol
