| Abstract | Background Chronic kidney disease affects approximately one in ten North Americans and is associated with a high risk of cardiovascular disease. Chronic kidney disease in women is characterized by an abnormal sex hormone profile and low estradiol levels. Since low estradiol levels are associated with an increased cardiovascular risk in healthy women, our objective is to determine the effect of hormone therapy on all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, and cardiovascular morbidity in women with chronic kidney disease. Methods/design Studies examining hormone therapy for adult women with chronic kidney disease will be included. The primary outcome is all-cause or cardiovascular mortality and morbidity. We will search electronic bibliographic databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL)) along with relevant conference proceedings, table of contents of journals, and review articles. Two investigators will independently screen identified abstracts and select observational cohort studies, case–control studies, and randomized controlled trials examining hormone therapy in women with chronic kidney disease. These investigators will also independently abstract data from relevant full-text journal articles and assess risk of bias. Where possible, these data will be summarized using pooled or combined estimates for the risk ratio or hazard ratio of all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, and cardiovascular morbidity in women with chronic kidney disease with and without hormone therapy. A random effects model will be used, and meta-regression and subgroup analyses will be used to explore potential source of heterogeneity. Discussion Given the high burden of cardiovascular disease in women with chronic kidney disease, this study will help guide clinical practice by summarizing current evidence on the use of hormone therapy for prevention of all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, and cardiovascular morbidity in this population. Systematic review registration The final protocol was registered with PROSPERO ( CRD42014014566) . |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
