B-type natriuretic peptide is released by cardiac myocytes in response to wall stretch. There are many hemodynamic effects of BNP which are beneficial in the setting of decompensated congestive heart ...

Assessment of brain natriuretic peptide levels may provide important information that can be used in the evaluation of patients with dyspnea and follow-up of heart failure. Brain natriuretic peptide ...

Nearly 5 million Americans have heart failure (HF). Making a correct diagnosis early is an important component in the multifaceted approach to detection and/or treatment of this disease. The US Food ...

To the Editor: In their interesting study of the prognostic value of brain (B-type) natriuretic peptide in patients with acute coronary syndromes, de Lemos et al. (Oct. 4 issue) 1 did not thoroughly ...

This prospective study investigates whether amino terminal proB-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels are elevated in neonates with congenital heart defect (CHD). NT-proBNP levels in the ...

Nivolumab Plus Chemotherapy in Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor–Mutated Metastatic Non–Small-Cell Lung Cancer After Disease Progression on Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors: ...

B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) has not been evaluated in newborns with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). We hypothesized that BNP and severity of pulmonary hypertension (PH) would predict ...

N-terminal pro B-type peptide (NT-proBNP) has been associated with risk of myocardial infarction (MI), but less is known about the relationship between NT-proBNP and very small non ST-elevation MI, ...

Data Bridge Market Research Published Latest Global Triage B-Type Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) Testing Market Study by in-depth analysis about current scenario, the Market size, demand, growth pattern, ...

An assay measuring N-terminal pro-BNP, or NT-proBNP, is more sensitive to detect heart failure and used in many institutions. The levels of BNP and NT-proBNP are essentially the same in normal ...

To the Editor: Maisel et al. (July 18 issue) 1 suggest the usefulness of measurement of B-type natriuretic peptide in the diagnosis of left ventricular dysfunction in patients with acute dyspnea, but ...
