Introduction: The plasma N-terminal probrain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) level is an
important diagnostic and prognostic marker of heart failure. Recent studies have suggested …

Objective To compare plasma N-terminal-probrain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels
with echocardiographic data in patients with systolic heart failure. Methods The study …

Background and aim The plasma concentrations of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide
(NT-proBNP) can reflect the cardiac functions in patients with cardiac diseases. Our aim is to …

The circulating concentration of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) has
been shown to be a diagnostic tool for the detection of heart failure. Several factors influence …

Background: Heart failure is a common cause of hospitalization and death across the
industrialized world. Improving the diagnosis and care of patients with heart failure is …

BACKGROUND: N-terminal-pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) has been found to
be a useful marker for the diagnosis of heart failure (HF) and left ventricular systolic …

Objective To evaluate the utility of N terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) as a
diagnostic marker for diastolic dysfunction or failure, systolic dysfunction, and significant …
