Urinary NT-proBNP compared head-to-head to plasmatic NT-proBNP in a real life collective with an ICD [PDF]
Aims: 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]
Aims 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.

Body mass index modifies the major adverse cardiovascular and cerebral events risk of NT-proBNP in patients with acute coronary syndrome [PDF]
Background Little is known about the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and the prognostic value of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).

Clinical value of NT-proBNP, MPO, and NLR combined with echocardiography in prediction of malignant arrhythmia in elderly patients with valvular heart disease [PDF]
Objective 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]
BackgroundN-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.

Clinical and Demographic Characteristics of Patients Hospitalized for Decompensated Heart Failure with Extremely High NT-proBNP Levels [PDF]
Background: NT-proBNP levels with a wide range at admission play both a diagnostic and a prognostic role in patients with HF. The differences regarding the clinical profiles and demography in decompensated HF patients according to NT-proBNP levels at ...

Machine learning integration of multimodal data identifies key features of circulating NT-proBNP in people without cardiovascular diseases [PDF]
N-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 ...
