Improvement in kidney function in patients with chronic hepatitis B and chronic kidney disease after switching to tenofovir alafenamide fumarate: a systematic review with single arm meta-analysis
The clinical relevance of TAF for HBV patients with CKD aligns with current guideline shifts favoring TAF. Despite limitations such as high heterogeneity, this study supports TAF as a safer management strategy for HBV patients with CKD, demonstrating improved kidney outcomes and reduced nephrotoxicity risks. These findings support its broader use in clinical practice and highlight the need for further research on long-term renal outcomes.
