Pediatric brain natriuretic peptide and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide reference intervals [PDF]

open access: yesClinica Chimica Acta, 2006
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

Natriuretic peptides and their usefulness in clinical practise

open access: yesJournal of Education, Health and Sport, 2020
Natriuretic peptides are peptic hormones produced by atrial and ventricular myocytes, and by endothelium of blood vessels, that take part in homeostatic control of water and sodium levels, but also potassium transport, lipolysis in adipocytes and blood ...

Natriuretic peptides and cardiovascular damage in the metabolic syndrome. Molecular mechanisms and clinical implications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Natriuretic peptides are endogenous antagonists of vasoconstrictor and salt- and water-retaining systems in the body's defence against blood pressure elevation and plasma volume expansion, through direct vasodilator, diuretic and natriuretic properties ...

Natriuretic peptides are neuroprotective on in vitro models of PD and promote dopaminergic differentiation of hiPSCs-derived neurons via the Wnt/β-catenin signaling

open access: yesCell Death Discovery, 2021
Over the last 20 years, the efforts to develop new therapies for Parkinson’s disease (PD) have focused not only on the improvement of symptomatic therapy for motor and non-motor symptoms but also on the discovering of the potential causes of PD, in order

Plasma N-Terminal Pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide as Prognostic Marker in Fatal Cardial Decompensation with Sunitinib Malate Therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A 74-year-old man with metastatic renal cell carcinoma and a history of cardiac failure was treated with sunitinib malate. MUGA echocardiography could not detect a relevant change in the ejection fraction although the clinical situation of the patient ...

Natriuretic peptides and integrated risk assessment for cardiovascular disease. an individual-participant-data meta-analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BACKGROUND: Guidelines for primary prevention of cardiovascular diseases focus on prediction of coronary heart disease and stroke. We assessed whether or not measurement of N-terminal-pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) concentration could enable ...

Combination of Amino‐Terminal Pro‐BNP, Estimated GFR, and High‐Sensitivity CRP for Predicting Cardiorenal Syndrome Type 1 in Acute Myocardial Infarction Patients

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
Background Cardiorenal syndrome type 1 (CRS1) as a complication of acute myocardial infarction can lead to adverse outcomes, and a method for early detection is needed. This study investigated the individual and integrated effectiveness of amino‐terminal
