The role of copeptin as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for risk stratification in the emergency department [PDF]
BMC Medicine, 2012 The hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis is activated in response to stress. One of the activated hypothalamic hormones is arginine vasopressin, a hormone involved in hemodynamics and osmoregulation.

Arginine vasopressin and copeptin in perinatology [PDF]
Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2016 Arginine vasopressin (AVP) plays a major role in the homeostasis of fluid balance, vascular tonus and the regulation of the endocrine stress response. The measurement of AVP levels is difficult due to its short half-life and laborious method of detection.

Serum Sodium Concentration During Arginine Vasopressin Infusion in Critically Ill Children [PDF]
ChildrenBackground: Intravenous arginine vasopressin is increasingly used for the treatment of critically ill children. It bears the risk of hyponatraemia with potential severe long-term sequelae, but data on hyponatraemia as a side effect of continuous ...

Propofol-induced transient arginine vasopressin deficiency [PDF]
Endocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism Case ReportsWe describe and characterise the case of a 26-year-old female undergoing surgery for a right-sided sinonasal alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma who developed profound, transient arginine vasopressin deficiency (AVP-D, formerly central diabetes insipidus (DI ...

Arginine Vasopressin Plays a Role in Microvascular Dysfunction After ST‐Elevation Myocardial Infarction [PDF]
Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2023 Background Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) predicts mortality after ST‐elevation–myocardial infarction (STEMI). Arginine vasopressin (AVP) may be implicated, but data in humans are lacking, and no study has investigated the link between arginine

Arginine vasopressin deficiency (central diabetes insipidus) with partial empty sella: a case report [PDF]
BMC Endocrine DisordersBackground Arginine vasopressin deficiency (central diabetes insipidus) is defined as a reduction in the release of arginine vasopressin (AVP) resulting in a variable degree of polyuria. Partial empty sella refers to an enlarged sella turcica that is not

Copeptin analysis in endocrine disorders
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2023 Copeptin is cleaved from the same precursor as arginine vasopressin and is released in equimolar amounts with arginine vasopressin from the posterior pituitary in response to the same stimuli.

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2022 Background: Behavioral changes in Rattus norvegicus infected with two strains of Toxoplasma gondii (ME49 and VEG) were investigated. Methods: Rats were evaluated for motor activity and aversion or attraction to cat urine 60 days after infection. After
