BACKGROUND The role of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-pro-BNP) as a prognostic factor in patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) is not yet fully established. We aimed to determine whether NT-pro-BNP is predictive of ICU mortality in a multicenter cohort of critically ill patients. METHODS A total of 1440 patients admitted to 22 ICUs (medical, 14; surgical, six; mult...
AIMS It has been suggested that troponins and natriuretic peptides can be falsely elevated in subjects with impaired kidney function because of decreased renal clearance. The value of these biomarkers in subjects with impaired kidney function has therefore been debated. We tested in a population-based cohort study, first, whether high-sensitive troponin T (hsTnT) and N-terminal pro-B-type natri...
AIMS No studies have yet been conducted concerning plasma N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (Nt-pro-BNP) levels after Myocardial Infarction (MI) and their relationship with short-term outcomes in diabetic patients. METHODS AND RESULTS Five hundred and sixty patients hospitalized for MI from the RICO survey, including 199 diabetic and 361 non-diabetic subjects, were included in the stud...
BACKGROUND Most patients with surgically corrected tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) are faced with multiple residua and sequelae such as pulmonary regurgitation (PR), resulting in reoperation for pulmonary valve replacement (PVR). Plasma brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) level and serum N-terminal pro-BNP (NT-pro-BNP) level are useful as diagnostic objective markers of chronic heart failure (CHF). The ...
Previous reports have shown that N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-Pro-BNP) is a predictive marker for mortality in both peritoneal dialysis (PD) and hemodialysis (HD) patients. The aim of the present study was to clarify whether NT-Pro-BNP reflects a specific status in PD patients. We analyzed 40 stable PD patients, allocating them to one of two groups (20 each) according to the med...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Plasma levels of NT-pro-BNP, a natriuretic peptide precursor, are raised in the presence of fluid retention of cardiac origin and can be used as markers of cardiac dysfunction. Recent studies showed high levels of NT pro BNP in patients with cirrhosis. We assessed NT pro-BNP and other parameters of cardiac dysfunction in patients with cirrhosis, with or without ascites, in o...
Objective Biochemical indicators such as N-terminal pro-brain type natriuretic peptide (NT pro-BNP) and high-sensitivity Creactive protein (hsCRP) predict mortality in acute coronary syndrome (ACS). However, little is known about the relationship of these factors with severity of coronary artery stenosis in patients with. Methods Three hundred and thirty-one subjects including 246 unstable angi...
BACKGROUND This study was undertaken to identify factors correlating with plasma levels of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and its N-terminal portion (NTpro BNP) in the acute phase of Kawasaki disease (KD). METHODS This study included 91 patients with KD treated at a hospital affiliated to Hamamatsu University School of Medicine between October 2003 and June 2011. We quantified BNP and NT-pr...
Introduction: Nowadays one of the most important problems of Thalassemia major patients is the additional load of iron and hemosiderosis, the most important consequence of which is deposited iron in myocardial tissue and the incidence of cardiomyopathy caused by hemochromatosis. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of concurrent (resistance-endurance) exercise on NT-pro BNP and...
BACKGROUND We investigated the relationship between NT-pro-BNP, glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and all-cause mortality rates in a cohort of older people discharged from an internal medicine unit after admission for dyspnoea. PATIENTS AND METHODS NT-pro-BNP was evaluated in serum samples of 134 patients aged 80 ± 6 years who presented to a single academic centre with worsening dyspnoea. His...
