N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide and long-term mortality in acute coronary syndromes.
BACKGROUND B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) is a predictor of short- and medium-term prognosis across the spectrum of acute coronary syndromes (ACS). The N-terminal fragment of the BNP prohormone, N-BNP, may be an even stronger prognostic marker. We assessed the relation between subacute plasma N-BNP levels and long-term, all-cause mortality in a large, contemporary cohort of patients with ACS....
متن کاملSerial analyses of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide in patients with non–ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndromes
OBJECTIVES The aim of this research was to describe N-terminal part of the pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels over time in non–ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndromes (NSTEACS), to elucidate factors associated with changes of NT-proBNP levels, and to examine association with long-term mortality. BACKGROUND The NT-proBNP levels are associated with mortality. Long-term tempor...
متن کاملN-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide levels for dynamic risk stratification of patients with acute coronary syndromes.
BACKGROUND Elevated baseline levels of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and the N-terminal fragments of its prohormone, N-terminal-pro-BNP (NT-proBNP), have been associated with adverse long-term outcome in patients with acute coronary syndromes, whereas the prognostic implications of serial NT-proBNP measurements have not been investigated to date. METHODS AND RESULTS NT-proBNP, troponin T, ...
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 کاملN-terminal Pro-B type natriuretic peptide as long-term predictor of death after an acute pulmonary embolism.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE After an acute pulmonary embolism few long-term prognostic factors have shown to be of practical use. We hypothesized that, as in heart failure, natriuretic peptides could serve as biomarkers of a late deleterious prognosis. PATIENTS AND METHODS Consecutive patients admitted to an Internal Medicine ward diagnosed with acute pulmonary embolism were traced through the c...
