Urinary NT-proBNP compared head-to-head to plasmatic NT-proBNP in a real life collective with an ICD [PDF]
Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology JournalAims: Plasma NT-proBNP is an established marker of heart failure. Previous studies suggested urinary NT-proBNP has potential as marker of chronic heart failure as well. The objective of this study was to compare urinary NT-proBNP to plasma NT-proBNP in a

SPARCL1 and NT‐proBNP as biomarkers of right ventricular‐to‐pulmonary artery uncoupling in pulmonary hypertension [PDF]
ESC Heart FailureAims SPARCL1 was recently identified as a biomarker of right ventricular (RV) maladaptation in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH), and N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic protein (NT‐proBNP) is an established biomarker of RV failure in PH.

Clinical value of NT-proBNP, MPO, and NLR combined with echocardiography in prediction of malignant arrhythmia in elderly patients with valvular heart disease [PDF]
Perioperative MedicineObjective We aimed to probe the clinical value of N-terminus pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), myeloperoxidase (MPO), and neutrophil lymphocyte ratio (NLR) combined with echocardiography in the prediction of malignant arrhythmias (MA) in elderly

Sendaway capillary NT-proBNP in pulmonary hypertension. [PDF]
BMJ Open Respir ResBackgroundN-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is a biomarker of cardiac ventricular wall stress that is incorporated into pulmonary hypertension (PH) risk stratification models. Sendaway sampling may enable patients to perform NT-proBNP tests remotely.

Machine learning integration of multimodal data identifies key features of circulating NT-proBNP in people without cardiovascular diseases [PDF]
Scientific ReportsN-Terminal Pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide (NT-proBNP) is important for diagnosing and predicting heart failure or many other diseases. However, few studies have comprehensively assessed the factors correlated with NT-proBNP levels in people with ...

European Journal of Heart Failure, 2023 Diagnosing heart failure is often difficult due to the non‐specific nature of symptoms, which can be caused by a range of medical conditions. Natriuretic peptides (NPs) have been recognized as important biomarkers for diagnosing heart failure.

NT-proBNP and high-intensity care for acute heart failure: the STRONG-HF trial.
European Heart Journal, 2023 BACKGROUND AND AIMS STRONG-HF showed that rapid up-titration of guideline-recommended medical therapy (GRMT), in a high intensity care (HIC) strategy, was associated with better outcomes compared to usual care (UC).
