Arginine vasopressin and copeptin in perinatology [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Vasopressin and its analogues in shock states: a review

open access: yesAnnals of Intensive Care, 2020
Activation of arginine–vasopressin is one of the hormonal responses to face vasodilation-related hypotension. Released from the post-pituitary gland, vasopressin induces vasoconstriction through the activation of V1a receptors located on vascular smooth ...

Propofol-induced transient arginine vasopressin deficiency [PDF]

open access: yesEndocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism Case Reports
We 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 ...

Patient Participation in Urine Specific Gravity Screening for Arginine Vasopressin Deficiency in an Inpatient Neurosurgical Clinic. [PDF]

open access: yesClin Endocrinol (Oxf)
ABSTRACT Objective Detecting hypotonic urine (specific gravity < 1005 g/L) is crucial for the early identification of arginine vasopressin deficiency (AVP‐deficiency), a common complication after pituitary surgery. This study aimed to evaluate the agreement between urine specific gravity measurements taken by patients using urine test strips and those ...

Serum Sodium Concentration During Arginine Vasopressin Infusion in Critically Ill Children [PDF]

open access: yesChildren
Background: 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 ...

Arginine Vasopressin Plays a Role in Microvascular Dysfunction After ST‐Elevation Myocardial Infarction [PDF]

open access: yesJournal 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]

open access: yesBMC Endocrine Disorders
Background 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

open access: yesFrontiers 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.
