Biological variation of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide in healthy individuals.
To the Editor: Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and its N-terminal prohormone (NTproBNP) fragment have been shown to be effective in diagnosing left ventricular dysfunction (1, 2), and in particular, they have a strong negative predictive value (3 ). NT-proBNP and the hormone are secreted on an equimolar basis, but NT-proBNP lacks a clearance receptor. It therefore has a longer half-life in seru...
متن کاملEvaluation of Serum Levels of N-terminal Pro Brain Natriuretic Peptide and Atrial Natriuretic Peptide in Neonates with Respiratory Distress
Background: Acute respiratory distress (ARD) is a critical respiratory failure due to lung injury of neonates leading to the clinical appearance of poor lung compliance. The aimed of the study was to evaluate the diagnostic values in differentiating respiratory from heart diseases with using of N-terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide (NT-pro BNP) and Atrial natriuretic peptide(ANP) in neonates...
متن کاملبررسی ارتباط سطح سرمی N-terminal Pro-brain Natriuretic Peptide و شدت پرهاکلامپسی
Background and purpose: Preeclampsia is a serious condition in pregnancy. Previous studies have shown that NT-pro BNP level is higher in preeclamptic patients than that in pregnant women with normal blood pressure. Severity of preeclampsia is one of the critical factors in managing patients, so, this study aimed at investigating the relationship between the level of NT-pro BNP and severity of ...

متن کاملWeek-to-week biological variation in the N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide in hemodialysis patients and healthy individuals.
The concentration of the Nterminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is often increased in patients with a reduced renal function. The suggested diagnostic cutoffs in acute or subacute heart failure [e.g., 300 pg/mL (66 pmol/L) and 125 pg/mL (27 pmol/L), respectively] are therefore probably not applicable for hemodialysis (HD) patients. A better approach may be to diagnose pat...
