متن کاملPlasma concentration of atrial natriuretic polypeptide in patients with atrial tachycardia.
To investigate the mechanisms of polyuria associated with tachycardia, we measured plasma concentrations of alpha-human atrial natriuretic polypeptide (alpha-hANP) and cGMP in 6 patients with paroxysmal tachycardia. Plasma concentrations of immunoreactive alpha-hANP and cGMP increased by +69% (p less than 0.05) and +100% (p less than 0.05), respectively, during both paroxysmal atrial tachycardi...
