Brain natriuretic peptide and NT-proBNP levels reflect pulmonary artery systolic pressure in trekkers at high altitude. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Our objective was to evaluate the utility of the natriuretic peptides BNP (brain natriuretic peptide) and NT-proBNP as markers of pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) in trekkers ascending to high altitude (HA). 20 participants had BNP and NT-proBNP

Reference intervals for N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide in amniotic fluid between 10 and 34 weeks of gestation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
BACKGROUND: In adult and pediatric cardiology, n-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (nt-proBNP) serves as biomarker in the diagnosis and management of cardiovascular dysfunction.

The use of NT-proBNP in clinical practice [PDF]

open access: yesSouth African Family Practice, 2004
Early detection of heart failure and the accurate diagnosis of heart failure remains a huge clinical challenge to family practitioners. ECGs and chest x-rays merely serve as baseline investigations and the diagnosis is eventually only confirmed by a two-dimensional echocardiogram coupled with Doppler-flow studies.

NT-proBNP: When is it useful in Obstetric Medicine? [PDF]

open access: yesObstetric Medicine, 2017
Pregnancy, viewed as a stress test of the haemodynamic system, may unmask underlying cardiac disease. Pregnancy may also induce de novo cardiac disease. N-terminal pro brain-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is a useful biomarker in all clinical conditions in which the ventricle is stressed and especially stretched in the general population.

Association of Estimated Insulin Resistance with N-Terminal B-Type Natriuretic Peptide Concentration in Men with Metabolic Syndrome

open access: yesCardiology Research and Practice, 2019
Background. The diagnostic and prognostic role of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in heart failure is well established. However, additional factors may influence its concentration.

Can NT-proBNP Levels Be an Early Biomarker of Reduced Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction in Preterm Infants?

open access: yesChildren, 2022
Background/Objective: N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is a cardiac natriuretic hormone that cardiomyocytes release in response to ventricular stretch.

N-Terminal Pro-brain Natriuretic Peptide Is Associated With Hemorrhagic Transformation and Poor Outcomes in Patients With Stroke Treated With Intravenous Thrombolysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2021
Background: N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels are a promising biomarker for predicting stroke outcomes; however, their prognostic validity is not well-understood in patients who have undergone intravenous thrombolysis.
