BNP is a peptide hormone resulting from the breakdown of precursor pro-BNP which can determine heart failure and can cause vasodilation. NT-pro-BNP is a static N-terminal fragment which can be used in the differential diagnosis of heart disease.Moffa...

BNP and NT-proBNP are both well established as diagnostic and prognostic markers for congestive heart failure (CHF). However it remains for the biologist to choose between these two biomarkers depending on his equipment availability. The aim of this study was to compare results obtained with the ...
Cicero, Pro Murena, 22 1 Introduction Hardly any jurisprudential appraisal of the relationship between matters of fact (i.e. ‘is’), matters of values (i.e. ‘ought’), and global semiotics can do without inquiring into the reasoning that law teachers, students, and practitioners employ to...

The mechanisms of the N-terminal-pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-pro-BNP) release in intensive care unit (ICU) patients with preserved ej...

(c) understanding that a negative value may rule out HF and yet a positive value does not always mean a diagnosis of HF; (d) being aware of other medical conditions which might be associated with increased levels of NT-proBNP, such as myocarditis, valvular heart diseases, acute coronary ...
6. Does a Gender-Related Issue Exist in Heart Failure? The decision to focus on sex-based differences, specifically referring to biological characteristics, in this study was motivated by the current limited understanding of gender-based disparities in HF research. The availability of clear and comp...
