Aims Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a syndrome characterized by elevated pulmonary artery pressure. We developed a population pharmacokinetic (PPK) model using combined plasma drug concentration data from Japanese paediatric (<15 years) and adult (≥15 years) patients with PAH to investigate the pharmacokinetic characteristics of PAH ...

Natriuretic hormones in brain function
Natriuretic hormones include three groups of compounds: the natriuretic peptides (ANP, BNP and CNP), the gastrointestinal peptides (guanylin and uroguanylin), and endogenous cardiac steroids.

Natriuretic Peptides in Heart Failure [PDF]
Heart failure is a major global health problem affecting 23 million people worldwide. As more cardiac patients survive and live longer with this progressive disease, heart failure is a condition for which the prevalence will grow. Based solely on clinical presentation, heart failure can be difficult to diagnose since its presentation is complex, with ...

ABSTRACT Background A 3D electroanatomical mapping (3D‐EAM) visualized steerable sheath was designed to improve catheter placement and reduce radiation exposure during ablation, an established treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF). However, prospective randomized data comparing the procedural and clinical outcomes of visualized and non‐visualized ...

Osteocrin ameliorates adriamycin nephropathy via p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase inhibition
Natriuretic peptides exert multiple effects by binding to natriuretic peptide receptors (NPRs). Osteocrin (OSTN) binds with high affinity to NPR-C, a clearance receptor for natriuretic peptides, and inhibits degradation of natriuretic peptides and ...

ABSTRACT Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with worse outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Previous, smaller studies suggested nephroprotective effects of micro‐axial flow pump (mAFP) during PCI. This study aimed to compare renal outcomes of high‐risk PCI with mAFP or intraaortic balloon pump (IABP) support.

ABSTRACT Background Inflammation and immune dysfunction may worsen the prognosis of patients with ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Aims This study aimed to assess whether the high‐sensitivity C‐reactive protein–albumin–lymphocyte index (hsCALLYI) could be used to predict the prognosis of STEMI patients who received emergency ...

Natriuretic peptides as emerging biomarkers for coronary artery disease risk assessment
The identification of novel biomarkers for coronary artery disease (CAD) risk stratification remains a critical priority in cardiovascular medicine. While natriuretic peptides – specifically atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and B-type natriuretic peptide

Precision medicine offers the opportunity to improve the benefit–risk profile of new therapies by prospectively identifying patients most likely to respond or least likely to experience harm; however, its systematic integration into drug development remains inconsistent outside oncology.
