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

, 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 ...

Physiology and clinical significance of natriuretic hormones

Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2013
The natriuretic system consists of the atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and four other similar peptides including the wrongly named brain natriuretic peptide (BNP). Chemically they are small peptide hormones predominantly secreted by the cardiac myocytes

NT-proBNP as a predictor of death and cardiovascular events in patients with type 2 diabetes

Diabetology & Metabolic Syndrome, 2022
Existing risk prediction scores based on clinical and laboratory variables have been considered inaccurate in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM).

Successful full-term delivery in a patient with maintenance hemodialysis using natriuretic peptides as volume markers without X-ray examination: a case report and literature review

Renal Replacement Therapy, 2019
A 38-year-old female undergoing maintenance hemodialysis became pregnant. To avoid X-ray exposure, plasma levels of natriuretic peptides were mainly used to determine dry weight. Dry weight was increased every week according to the gestation week.

Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) and renin-aldosterone in volume regulation of patients with cirrhosis [PDF]

, 1989
The role of the atrial natriuretic factor and of the main counteracting sodium-retaining principle, the renin-aldosterone system, in acute volume regulation of cirrhosis of the liver has been investigated.

Natriuretic Peptides in Chronic Heart Failure

Cardiac Failure Review, 2019
Normal brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and N-terminal proBNP (NT-proBNP) levels are helpful in excluding chronic heart failure in the ambulatory setting, although they have been studied less well and possibly less accurately than in acute care.

Secondary Publication: Natriuretic Peptides in Heart Failure

Tokyo Women's Medical University Journal
Natriuretic peptides are among the most important discoveries in cardiovascular medicine, revealing the endocrine properties of the heart. Natriuretic peptides are activated in heart failure (HF) and play important cardioprotective roles.

Discrimination and Quantification of Glomerular Receptor Subtypes for Atrial Natriuretic Factor (Anf) [PDF]

, 1991
Binding sites for atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) were determined on isolated rat glomeruli as well as on glomerular membranes. To define optimal conditions, binding of ANF was investigated varying incubation time, temperature and protein concentration ...

Natriuretic Peptides in the Management of Solid Organ Transplantation Associated Acute Kidney Injury: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

International Journal of Nephrology, 2013
Randomized controlled trials involving natriuretic peptide administration in solid organ transplantation setting have shown inconsistent effects for renal endpoints. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of these trials to ascertain the role

Brain natriuretic peptide: Diagnostic potential in dogs [PDF]

Veterinarski Glasnik, 2009
The endocrine role of the heart is evident in the secretion of noradrenaline and natriuretic peptides. The secretion of natriuretic peptides presents a useful mechanism for different conditions of cardiac dysfunction.
