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 ...

Biomarkers and low risk in heart failure. Data from COACH and TRIUMPH [PDF]
, 2015 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.

The Potential Role of Salivary NT-proBNP in Heart Failure
Life, 2023 Background: Serum natriuretic peptides (NPs) have an established role in heart failure (HF) diagnosis. Saliva NT-proBNP that may be easily acquired has been studied little. Methods: Ninety-nine subjects were enrolled; thirty-six obese or hypertensive with dyspnoea but no echocardiographic HF findings or raised NPs served as controls, thirteen chronic ...

Exploring the relation between changes in NT-proBNP and renal function in patients with suspected heart failure using structural equation modelling [PDF]
, 2017 Background: The relation between changes in NT-proBNP and renal function has commonly been studied using multiple regressions, which may ignore the complexity of relations between related variables.

BNP/NT-proBNP in pulmonary arterial hypertension: time for point-of-care testing?
European Respiratory Review, 2020 Despite the advent of new therapies and improved outcomes in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), it remains a life-shortening disease and the time to diagnosis remains unchanged.

Effect of Natriuretic Peptide-Guided Therapy on Hospitalization or Cardiovascular Mortality in High-Risk Patients With Heart Failure and Reduced Ejection Fraction: A Randomized Clinical Trial. [PDF]
, 2017 Importance: The natriuretic peptides are biochemical markers of heart failure (HF) severity and predictors of adverse outcomes. Smaller studies have evaluated adjusting HF therapy based on natriuretic peptide levels ( guided therapy ) with inconsistent ...
