Placental expression of proBNP/NT-proBNP and plasma levels of NT-proBNP in early- and late-onset preeclampsia. [PDF]
American Journal of Hypertension, 2014 Levels of plasma N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) are elevated in preeclampsia. In this study, the possibility that the placenta produces and releases proBNP/NT-proBNP was explored. Plasma levels of NT-proBNP in early- and late-onset preeclampsia were also measured.Placental proBNP mRNA in early-onset preeclampsia (n = 7), late ...

Prognostic value of serial NT-proBNP assay in adults with congenital heart disease and biventricular physiology [PDF]
International Journal of Cardiology Congenital Heart DiseaseBackground: The available data about the prognostic role of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in adults with congenital heart disease (CHD) are derived from small sample size with limited follow-up.

Urinary NT-proBNP compared head-to-head to plasmatic NT-proBNP in a real life collective with an ICD
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

Longitudinal changes in NT-proBNP after breast cancer radiotherapy: clinical determinants of its trajectory and association with cardiac dysfunction (BACCARAT study) [PDF]
Clinical and Translational Radiation OncologyBackground and purpose: Radiotherapy (RT) for breast cancer (BC) may induce subclinical myocardial injury. Longitudinal trajectories of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), a biomarker of myocardial stress, remain insufficiently ...

The Egyptian Heart Journal, 2023 Background N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is a biomarker used for the diagnosis of heart failure. There is a relationship between NT-proBNP levels and body mass index (BMI). The study aimed to explore the impact of BMI on NT-proBNP

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2016 BACKGROUND: Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a serious complication to interstitial lung disease (ILD) and has a poor prognosis. PH is often diagnosed by screening with echocardiography followed by right heart catheterisation. A previous study has shown that a value of NT-pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) <95 ng/l could be used to rule out PH ...

The Ratio of NT-proBNP to CysC1.53 Predicts Heart Failure in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease
Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021 Background: The N-terminal pro B type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is important for prognosis of heart failure in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Levels of NT‑proBNP in patients with cancer
Oncology Letters, 2023 At present, it is well known that natriuretic peptides may be produced by cancer cells. Stimulation of N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) synthesis may be a reaction to activity of several proinflammatory cytokines. NT-proBNP is also a marker of myocardial damage during cardiotoxic chemotherapy by anthracyclines.
