Atrial fibrillation impairs the diagnostic performance of cardiac natriuretic peptides in dyspneic patients. results from the BACH Study (Biomarkers in ACute Heart Failure) [PDF]
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of atrial fibrillation (AF) on the performance of mid-region amino terminal pro-atrial natriuretic peptide (MR-proANP) in comparison with the B-type peptides (BNP and NT-proBNP) for diagnosis

ABSTRACT NPR3‐related tall stature is characterized by tall stature, elongated big toes, and additional epiphyses in hand and foot bones. The condition is caused by biallelic loss‐of‐function variants affecting natriuretic peptide receptor 3 (NPR3). Five individuals from four different families have been reported.

Is C-type natriuretic peptid level can be an early indicator for acute kidney injury?
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is defined as a reduction of renal function in hours, including both structural damage and loss of function. There are limited number of biomarkers for early detection and staging of severity.

Altered density of glomerular binding sites for atrial natriuretic factor in bile duct-ligated rats with ascites [PDF]
The renal response to atrial natriuretic factor is blunted in cirrhosis with ascites. This might be due to alterations of renal receptors for atrial natriuretic factor.

C-type natriuretic peptide and vascular remodeling: Reply
We are grateful for the opportunity to respond to the valuable comments by Drs. Davidson and Struthers concerning our recent article in the Journal [(1)][1]. In our article, we showed that adenovirus-mediated overexpression of C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) in the porcine coronary ...

Aims The aim of this phase 1 trial was to assess the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of balcinrenone (previously AZD9977) in participants with severe renal impairment vs. those with normal renal function. Methods Participants with severe renal impairment (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] < 30 mL/min/1.73 m2) not on dialysis were ...
