Natriuretic peptides in brain physiology
Abstract Natriuretic peptides (NPs) regulate salt and water homeostasis by inducing natriuresis and diuresis in the kidney. These actions in addition to those via the heart and vascular system play important roles in the regulation of blood pressure.

The interpretation of brain natriuretic peptide in critical care patients; will it ever be useful? [PDF]
The measurement of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) is recommended for the diagnosis of decompensated heart failure, the prognosis of chronic heart failure is worse if BNP is increased and studies suggest that BNP is useful to guide therapy.

Chronic hyponatremia in a patient with renal salt wasting and without cerebral disease: relationship between RSW, risk of fractures and cognitive impairment [PDF]
Renal salt wasting syndrome (RSW) is defined as a renal loss of sodium leading to hyponatremia and a decrease in extracellular fluid volume (ECV). Differentiation of this disorder from the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH),

INTRODUCTIONBrain natriuretic peptide (BNP) is a cardiac biomarker used in the assessment of heart failure. Potentially, BNP levels can be used to stratify patients with thyroid storm (TS) who are at risk of complications such as heart failure and atrial

Pediatric brain natriuretic peptide and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide reference intervals [PDF]
Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) have been shown to be useful biomarkers for the diagnosis of heart failure. Pediatric reference intervals for these analytes have been reported in part. Previous studies lack large numbers in each group, have not covered all age ranges and have not compared results
