چکیده
OBJECTIVEdCirculating levels of NH2-terminal probrain natriuretic peptide (NTproBNP), a marker of acute heart failure, are associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in the general population. However, there is little information on the potential role of NT-proBNP as a biomarker of vascular complications in type 1 diabetic patients. We investigated whether serumNT-proBNP levels were associated withmicroandmacrovascular disease in type 1 diabetic subjects.

متن کاملN-terminal fragment of probrain natriuretic peptide is associated with diabetes microvascular complications in type 2 diabetes [Corrigendum]
AIM/INTRODUCTION Circulating levels of N-terminal fragment of probrain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) are established as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease and mortality in patients with diabetes, as well as in the general population. We sought to examine the possibility of NT-proBNP as a biomarker of microvascular complications in patients with type 2 diabetes. MATERIALS AND METHODS I...
