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...

The aim of the study was to evaluate the clinical usefulness of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-Pro BNP) and nitric oxide (NO) with echocardiography (gold standard test) in diagnosis of canine cardiomyopathy. Out of 374 cases, 82 cases showing cardiovascular abnormalities including 16 cases of cardiomyopathy were further selected for standardization of biomarkers. Significant (P

conclusions the results of the current study suggested that spinal anesthesia plus intravenous patient-controlled analgesia have the most favorable cardiac effects regarding postoperative levels of pro-bnp. results there was no difference between three groups for basic characteristics and variables and baseline pro-bnp levels; however, postoperative pro-bnp levels in groups a, b, and c were res...

1024x768 normal 0 false false false en-us x-none fa background : heart failure is a common health problem with poor prognosis. the gold standard for diagnosis is echocardiography but it is not always reachable, especially in emergency conditions. nt-pro-brain natriuretic peptide (nt-probnp) is a novel indicator for the diagnosis of heart failure and is being used in routine tests in emergency r...

Acute myocardial infarction (MI) results in activation of neurohormonal systems and increased plasma concentrations of myocardial enzymes and structural proteins. We hypothesized that plasma levels of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-BNP) would respond more vigorously after MI than those of other natriuretic peptides. We also sought to compare this response with that of the establis...
