BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The plasma concentration of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-pro-BNP) is a st-rong prognostic indicator for patients with heart failure (HF) across all stages of the condition. Several clinical trials have de-monstrated convincingly that neurohormonal modulation on the renin angiotensin system (RAS) decreases plasma NT-pro-BNP level and results in favorable...
AIMS The Cardiac Resynchronization-Heart Failure (CARE-HF) study demonstrated that cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) could reduce morbidity and mortality and improve cardiac function in patients with moderate or severe heart failure secondary to left ventricular systolic dysfunction and markers of cardiac dyssynchrony. The purpose of this analysis was to investigate the effect of CRT on p...
PURPOSE The aim of the study was to evaluate the utility of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-pro BNP, pg/ml) assessment to predict infarct size and left ventricle function after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) at long-term follow-up. METHODS In 45 patients with first STEMI less than 3 hours from symptom onset treated with mechanical reperfusion NT-pro BNP was a...
OBJECTIVE To investigate the diastolic Doppler filling pattern in patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy and its relation to N-terminal pro-atrial natriuretic peptide (NT-pro-ANP). METHODS 32 patients (26 male, six female) with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy were investigated. All were in sinus rhythm. Conventional M mode echocardiography and Doppler echocardiography was done in e...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Several studies on diagnostic accuracy of pleural N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-pro-BNP) for effusions from congestive heart failure (CHF) conclude that pleural NT-pro-BNP is a useful biomarker with high diagnostic accuracy for distinguishing CHF effusions. However, its applicability in critical care settings remains uncertain and requires further invest...
BACKGROUND Circulating N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT pro-BNP), high- sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and big endothelin (big-ET) have been shown to be increased in heart failure and to contribute to both hemodynamic deterioration and cardiovascular remodeling. Here, we examined the prognostic value of the three neurohormones at admission in a population of hospitalized p...
This study was performed to determine whether the N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-pro-BNP) is a useful biomarker in predicting cardiovascular congestion, mortality, and cardiovascular death and event in chronic peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. A prospective cohort study was conducted in 230 chronic PD patients in a dialysis unit of a university teaching hospital. Serum NT-pro-BNP...
BACKGROUND Altered thyroid function and increased rates of N-terminal pro-B-Type natriuretic peptide (NT-pro-BNP) are highly prevalent in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients with heart failure, and are associated with unfavorable prognosis. This study was undertaken to examine the relationship and prognostic impact of thyroid hormones, inflammatory biomarkers, and NT-pro-BNP on long-term out...
INTRODUCTION Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels correlate with functional capacity in patients with heart failure. Autonomic dysfunction and baro-chemo reflex balance play a role in conditioning exercise tolerance and chronotropic competence in heart failure. In this study we examined the relationship between N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-pro-BNP) and heart rate (HR) response...
BACKGROUND Serum levels of N-terminal proB-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) are elevated in patients acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Recent studies showed a lower incidence of acute cor pulmonale in ARDS patients ventilated with lower tidal volumes. Consequently, serum levels of NT-proBNP may be lower in these patients. We investigated the relation between serum levels of NT-pro...
