Elevated plasma natriuretic peptide levels were associated with cardiovascular events.
M e t h o d s Design: Cohort study with mean 5.2-year follow-up (Framingham Offspring Study). Setting: Community-based study in the United States. Patients: 3346 participants (mean age 58 y, 53% women) of the Framingham Off-spring Study. Exclusion criteria were HF, serum creatinine > 177 μmol/L (> 2.0 mg/dL), unavailable natriuretic peptide levels, or missing covariate or follow-up data. Risk f...
متن کاملC-type natriuretic peptide plasma levels are reduced in obese adolescents.
The high prevalence of obesity in children may increase the magnitude of lifetime risk of cardiovascular disease (CD). At present, explicit data for recommending biomarkers as routine pre-clinical markers of CD in children are lacking. C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) is assuming increasing importance in CD; in adults with heart failure, its plasma levels are related to clinical and functional ...
متن کاملPlasma brain natriuretic peptide levels are elevated in patients with cancer
BACKGROUND Natriuretic peptides have been proposed as biomarkers of cardiovascular disease, especially heart failure. Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) has also been shown to be upregulated at the transcriptional and translational levels by pro-inflammatory cytokines in cardiac myocytes. Although we often measure plasma BNP levels in cancer patients, it remains unknown whether cancer-related infl...
متن کاملElevated plasma C-type natriuretic peptide concentrations in patients with chronic renal failure.
1. C-type natriuretic peptide is a neuropeptide, which is also produced by the vascular endothelial cells. Plasma immunoreactive C-type natriuretic peptide concentrations in patients with various diseases have not yet been studied. 2. Plasma immunoreactive C-type natriuretic peptide concentrations were studied by radioimmunoassay in normal subjects, patients with congestive heart failure, non-d...
