It is well known that salt intake is associated with blood pressure (BP) levels. Indeed, a meta-analysis of 185 studies by Graudal et al. found that a reduction in salt intake caused a decrease in BP ...

Natriuretic peptides are hormones with a range of key functions vital for regulating cardiometabolic health, including regulating blood pressure, blood sugar levels, and increasing utilization of ...

This new study investigated the relationship between cardiac function and hemodynamics among individuals presenting with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and normal levels of ...

"[The study] findings suggest that, among people with obesity and a high cardiovascular risk, a NT-pro BNP [NT-proBNP] < 125 pg/mL may not rule out the presence of HF," the researchers of the study ...

The relationship between cardiovascular dysfunction and renal impairment is widely recognized as the cardiorenal interaction, a complex physiological link in which damage to one organ can accelerate ...

While B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels remain high in patients with end-stage heart failure with cardiogenic shock, these levels lose their prognostic value in patients using ventricular assist ...

The relationship between cardiovascular dysfunction and renal impairment is widely recognized as the cardiorenal interaction, a complex physiological link in which damage to one organ can accelerate ...

Diastolic heart failure is common in the elderly, particularly women. Previous studies on the value of brain natriuretic peptide in diastolic dysfunction have been largely limited to male subjects.

BNP levels in the blood reflects the severity of cardiac dysfunction. Higher BNP levels have been associated with adverse clinical outcomes. This study looked at end-stage heart failure patients with ...
