DOI: 10.1007/s00380-018-1150-4
Abstract: We aimed to compare the usefulness of plasma levels of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) for long-term risk stratification among patients with heart failure (HF) with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (HFpEF), borderline HFpEF, and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000025931
Abstract: Abstract Excessive salt intake causes hypertension and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) is synthesized and released from the ventricle, and is a surrogate marker reflecting various CVDs. Moreover, when a slight BNP elevation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/iju.14214
Abstract: Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is a central part of prostate cancer treatment. Although medical castration using gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists or antagonists might soften the mental or physical burden caused by surgical castration, an increase… read more here.

DOI: 10.55729/2000-9666.1048
Abstract: Introduction Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) is a polypeptide released from the cardiac ventricles and has been used as a diagnostic marker in cardiovascular diseases. Some patients with pulmonary hypertension have significant increases in BNP levels.… read more here.
