B-type natriuretic peptide following thoracic surgery: a predictor of postoperative cardiopulmonary complications.
OBJECTIVES B-type natriuretic peptides (BNPs) are secreted by the human heart in response to ventricular wall stretch or myocardial ischaemia, and predict adverse cardiovascular events and death in the general population. Following non-cardiac surgical procedures, there is growing evidence supporting BNP measurement as a powerful independent predictor of death and perioperative complications. H...

criterion for assessment of observed variability. Given an inherent variability of +20% for each method under comparison, the combined variability (i.e. limits of agreement) should not exceed +30% of the mean SVV. Applying these strict criteria to the data, agreement of methods studied by the authors was unacceptable. Secondly, the authors compared SV derived from different methods at specified...
متن کاملNatriuretic Peptide Type-B Gene
The structure of the mouse natriuretic peptide type-B (BNP) gene was determined by isolating and sequencing genomic clones. The mouse BNP gene was structurally similar to other natriuretic peptide genes and comprised three exons and two introns. Expression of the mouse BNP gene was found only in cardiac tissue as determined by ribonuclease protection analyses. Initiation of transcription was 31...

Obesity and attendant complications including type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension (HTN), and heart disease are worldwide epidemics with incompletely understood associations. Mechanisms underlying the association of HTN and obesity include upregulation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, sympathetic nervous system, insulin resistance, and adipose tissue activity, but a paradoxically ...
متن کاملBiomarker for Cardiomyopathy-B-Type Natriuretic Peptide
Cardiomyopathy is cardiac condition in which the normal muscular function of the myocardium has been altered by a variety of etiologies. Atherosclerotic coronary artery disease is the most common cause of cardiomyopathy in North America and Europe. Idiopathic cardiomyopathy is the second most common cause, although this may partially include undiagnosed etiologies such as viral infection, drug ...
