Journal ArticleDOI

The impact of cardiac natriuretic peptide determination on the diagnosis and management of heart failure.

TL;DR: It could be demonstrated that in chronic heart failure patients and during the subacute phase of myocardial infarction, the cardiac natriuretic peptides were best markers to identify heart failure and the most powerful predictors of morbidity and mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Head-to-head comparison of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide, brain natriuretic peptide and N-terminal pro-atrial natriuretic peptide in diagnosing left ventricular dysfunction.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), NT-proBNP, and Pro-atrial natriive peptide(NT-proANP) for the detection of heart failure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantifying atherogenic lipoproteins for lipid-lowering strategies: consensus-based recommendations from EAS and EFLM

TL;DR: Residual risk of ASCVD even under optimal LDL-lowering treatment should be also assessed by non-HDLC or apolipoprotein B (apoB), especially in patients with mild-to-moderate hypertriglyceridemia (2–10 mmol/L).
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of Circulating Forms of proBNP and NT-proBNP in Patients with Severe Heart Failure

TL;DR: The higher molecular masses for NT-proBNP and proBNP observed in the Western blotting analyses than those expected from calculations can be explained by O-glycosylation of these peptides in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Natriuretic Peptides as Markers of Mild Forms of Left Ventricular Dysfunction: Effects of Assays on Diagnostic Performance of Markers

TL;DR: The performance of BNP for the diagnosis of systolic or diastolic LVD is not affected by the assay used, whereas the performance of NT-proBNP for thediagnosis of isolated diastolics LVA is assay dependent.
