N-terminal-pro-brain natriuretic peptide, but not brain natriuretic peptide, is increased in patients with severe obesity

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2007
Elevated body mass index (BMI) has been reported as a risk factor for heart failure. Prevention of heart failure through identification and management of risk factors and preclinical phases of the disease is a priority.

N-TERMINAL PRO-BRAIN NATRIURETIC PEPTIDE IN DIAGNOSTICS OF NON-COMPACTED MYOCARDIUM IN CHILDREN

open access: yesПедиатрическая фармакология, 2012
Non-compacted myocardium is a rare congenital cardiomyopathy. Due to the lack of uniform criteria, diagnostics of this condition is complicated presently, which results in over-diagnosing.

Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy: Literature review and red‐flag symptom clusters for each cardiology specialty

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 955-967, April 2025.
Abstract Wild‐type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt‐CM) is a progressive and infiltrative cardiac disorder that may cause fatal consequences if left untreated. The estimated survival time from diagnosis is approximately 3–6 years. Because of the non‐specificity of initial symptom manifestation and insufficient awareness among treating ...

Impact of an interatrial shunt device on survival and heart failure hospitalization in patients with preserved ejection fraction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Aims: Impaired left ventricular diastolic function leading to elevated left atrial pressures, particularly during exertion, is a key driver of symptoms and outcomes in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Insertion of an interatrial

ST2 and Multimarker Testing in Acute Decompensated Heart Failure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Most data on heart failure biomarkers have been derived from patient cohorts with chronic disease. However, risk prediction in patients admitted with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) remains a challenge.

Reply to: N-terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide in coronary artery disease

open access: yesJournal of the Saudi Heart Association, 2015
In response to the letter by Professor Sim Sai Tin, we agree that the clinical usefulness of NT-proBNP has been widely discussed. Dr. Sim Sai Tin mentions the report by Ranjith et al. [1] on the usefulness of this biomarker in which the authors suggest that “NT-proBNP should be included in the risk assessment of ACS to provide guidance for further ...

Biomarker profiles of acute heart failure patients with a mid-range ejection fraction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
OBJECTIVES: In this study, the authors used biomarker profiles to characterize differences between patients with acute heart failure with a midrange ejection fraction (HFmrEF) and compare them with patients with a reduced (heart failure with a ...

Comprehensive exploration of unexplained dyspnoea in subjects with normal ejection fraction and low natriuretic peptides

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 879-887, April 2025.
Abstract Background Unexplained exertional dyspnoea without significant elevation of natriuretic peptides is common. One of the causes might be early heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Aims This study aimed to characterize patients with exertional dyspnoea and normal/near‐to‐normal N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic peptide (NT ...
