The results of several trials demonstrate that natriuretic peptides, including BNP and NT-proBNP, are useful for diagnosis and risk stratification of patients with HF. [23] As a consequence ...

Heart failure (HF) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Testing for natriuretic peptide markers, such as B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) or N-terminal proBNP (NT-proBNP), has ...

Peptides have emerged as a focal point in molecular and biological research, providing a promising avenue for understanding ...

Natriuretic peptides, especially B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), have primarily been regarded as biomarkers in heart failure (HF). However, they are also possible therapeutic agents due to their ...

Objectives Anaemia is a risk of worsening heart failure. However, anaemia sometimes remains undetected because the superficial cardiac function does not precisely reflect the adverse impact of anaemia ...
