Increased intracranial pressure is considered to be caused by CSWS, leading to an increase in
natriuretic peptides in the cerebrospinal fluid.
Objective: To detect the serum levels of D-dimer and N-terminal pro B-type
natriuretic peptide (NT-pro BNP) in patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS), and to explore the risk factors of AIS.
The current study was planned to determine the effect of percutaneous transvenous mitral commissurotomy (PTMC) on brain
natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels in mitral stenosis patients.
UNIVARIATE ASSOCIATIONS OF
NATRIURETIC PEPTIDES WITH RISK FACTORS AND ECHO FINDINGS
[USA], August 26 ( ANI ): Recent research shows that elevated levels of
natriuretic peptides in adipose tissue protect against effects of high-fat diet.
Weight gain and obesity have been associated with increased expression of
natriuretic peptide receptors-C, in adipose tissue and increased degradation of
natriuretic peptides [37].

Natriuretic peptides in the management of aortic stenosisi.
Several experimental data show that hypoxia is an independent factor that regulates the synthesis and release of
natriuretic peptides. It has been reported by Chun et al.
Traditionally, three different groups of biomarkers have been identified: (1) laboratory tests, such as
natriuretic peptides (NPs) and troponins are defined as "laboratory or molecular biomarkers," (2) those related to signal, imaging, and functional tests are defined as "functional biomarkers" and (3) those related to genetic polymorphisms and other genomic tests are defined as "genetic biomarkers." In this sense, an integrate approach appears mandatory to establish early diagnosis and to optimize the outcome.
