Presents results of an international, multicenter study that examined the degree to which the braintype natriuretic peptide (BNP) enhances clinical judgment in diagnosing congestive heart failure (CHF). Action of the peptides in inhibiting the rennin-angiotensin system and the endothelin pathway; ...
The Diagnosis of Acute Congestive Heart Failure: Role of BNP Measurements For the acutely ill patient presenting to the emergency department with dyspnea, an incorrect diagnosis could place the patient at risk for both morbidity ... AS Maisel - 《Heart Failure Reviews》 被引量: 139发表: 2003年...
B-type natriuretic peptide levels: A potential novel "white count" for congestive heart failure Finding a simple blood test to aid in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with congestive heart failure could have a favorable impact on the costs asso... A Maisel - 《Journal of Cardiac ...
It was reported for the first time that, in this patient, increased ejection fraction and immensely improved heart failure score plus pro-BNP index were achieved 2 years after MenSC administration. It is worth noting that MenSCs are by some authors referred to as endometrial regenerative cells ...
chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay with AIA-CL2400 (TOSOH Corporation, Tokyo, Japan). The upper normal limit for the plasma BNP level was set at 18.4 pg/mL42. The blood TKB level was measured by an enzyme cycling method using TKB-L test kit “Kainos” (KAINOS Laboratories, Inc., Tokyo, ...
9.The Plasma Level of B-type Natriuretic Peptide Study Influenced by the Effect of‘Warming Yang and Benefiting Qi, Promoting Blood Circulation and Inducing Diuresis’on Chronic Heart Failure Patients温阳益气,活血利水法对慢性心功能不全患者血浆BNP的作用研究 ...
Immunoglobulin light chain amyloidosis (AL) should be considered in any patient that presents to a cancer care provider with nephrotic range proteinuria, heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, non-diabetic peripheral neuropathy, unexplained hepatomegaly or diarrhea. More importantly, patients being...
congestive heart failure, reduced left ventricular ejection fraction, or diastolic dysfunction). Similarly, elevated systolic blood pressures near the time of dyspnea onset, cardiomegaly, and/or increased circulating levels of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) or N-terminal (NT)-pro-BNP support a ...
transfusion end [153]: • Acute Respiratory Distress (cough, dyspnea, orthopnea) • Elevated Brain Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) • Elevated Central Venous Pressure (CVP) • Evidence of Left Heart Failure • Evidence of Positive Fluid Balance • Radiographic Evidence of Pulmonary Edema 482 L...
congestive heart failure,the blood-serum BNP and high sensitivity C-reactive protein levels gradually increased.Conclusions The assay of the blood-serum BNP and high sensitivity C-reactive protein concentration is one reference index in judgement of the degree of congestive heart failure,and play an ...
