N-Terminal Pro-B-type Natriuretic Peptide Levels in the Korean General Population
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) or N-terminal pro-BNP (NT-proBNP) levels may serve as a useful marker of cardiovascular risk for screening of the general population. We evaluated reference levels and distribution of NT-proBNP in the Korean general population based on a large cohort study. SUBJECTS AND METHODS We included 1,518 adult subjects (ages 40-69) of a commun...
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 کاملPerioperative B-type Natriuretic Peptide/N-terminal pro-B-type Natriuretic PeptideNext Steps to Clinical Practice
Anesthesiology, V 123 • No 2 246 August 2015 T HE heart is not only a pumping organ but also an endocrine organ. B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) is secreted primarily by cardiac ventricular myocytes in response to increased ventricular wall stress induced by volume expansion, pressure overload, or ischemia.1 BNP protein formation begins with intracellular translation into a large preprohormone...

متن کاملN-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide levels increases after hyperbaric oxygen therapy in diabetic patients.
PURPOSE Diabetic patients receive hyperbaric oxygen therapy for non-healing lower extremity ulcers. Exposure to hyperbaric hyperoxia during hyperbaric oxygen therapy may affect cardiovascular functions by different mechanisms. Patients may experience serious problems such as pulmonary edema and death during hyperbaric oxygen therapy. The effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on cardiovascular fun...
