Prognostic value of RDW alone and in combination with NT‐proBNP in patients with heart failure
Red blood cell distribution width (RDW) and N‐terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP) may predict the prognosis of heart failure (HF). However, the impact of combined RDW and NT‐proBNP levels as a prognostic marker of HF remains unclear and ...

Association of NT-ProBNP, Blood Pressure, and Cardiovascular Events: The ARIC Study.
BACKGROUND Although intensive blood pressure reduction has cardiovascular benefits, the absolute benefit is greater in those at higher cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk.

Heart failure (HF) is a chronic cardiovascular disease that represents main cause of mortality worldwide, particularly for elderly. N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) was identified as the gold standard biomarker for HF diagnosis and ...

Prognostic value of NT-proBNP in patients with severe COVID-19
Background The outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in China has been declared a public health emergency of international concern.

Background While the N-terminal pro-brain-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) at rest is known to be associated with prognosis in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), it is unclear if the NT-proBNP response to exercise (ΔNT-proBNP) can contribute to a

The Multi-Biomarker Approach for Heart Failure in Patients with Hypertension [PDF]
We assessed the predictive ability of selected biomarkers using N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) as the benchmark and tried to establish a multi-biomarker approach to heart failure (HF) in hypertensive patients. In 120 hypertensive

A Multi-marker Model for Predicting Decompensated Heart Failure in Patients with Prior Acute Myocardial Infarction [PDF]
The aim of the study was to assess the prognostic value of determining the plasma concentration of NT-proBNP and ST2 in the patients with decompensated HF and prior acute myocardial infarction and their combination in this category of patients.Materials ...

Heart failure (HF) and atrial fibrillation (AF) frequently coexist and are both associated with increased levels of N‐terminal pro‐B‐type natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP). It is known that AF impairs the diagnostic accuracy of NT‐proBNP for HF. The aim of

Biomarkers and low risk in heart failure. Data from COACH and TRIUMPH [PDF]
Aim Traditionally, risk stratification in heart failure (HF) emphasizes assessment of high risk. We aimed to determine if biomarkers could identify patients with HF at low risk for death or HF rehospitalization.

Aims The N‐terminal pro‐B‐type natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP) is a commonly used biomarker in heart failure for diagnosis and prognostication. We aimed to determine the prevalence of NT‐proBNP testing, distribution of NT‐proBNP concentrations, and ...
