DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0209517
Abstract: Ageing-related alterations in cardiovascular structure and function are commonly associated with chronic inflammation. A potential blood-based biomarker indicative of a chronic inflammatory state is N-Terminal Pro C-Type Natriuretic Peptide (NTproCNP). We aim to investigate associations… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2021.584108
Abstract: COVID-19 may lead to severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) resulting in increased morbidity and mortality. Heart failure and/or pre-existing cardiovascular disease may correlate with poor outcomes and thus require special attention from treating physicians.… read more here.
