Description

PAH

Characterization of brain natriuretic peptide in long-term follow-up of pulmonary arterial hypertension.

PAH

Brain natriuretic peptide as noninvasive marker of the severity of right ventricular dysfunction in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension.

PAH

N-terminal-pro-B type natriuretic peptide as a useful tool to evaluate pulmonary hypertension and cardiac function in CDH infants.

PAH

N-terminal natriuretic peptide and ventilation-perfusion lung scan in sickle cell disease and thalassemia patients with pulmonary hypertension.

PAH

Significance of plasma NT-proBNP levels as a biomarker in the assessment of cardiac involvement and pulmonary hypertension in patients with sarcoidosis.

PAH

Increased cardiac release of BNP an NT-proBNP is shown in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension.

PAH

"In pediatric pulmonary arterial hypertension, BNP and NTProBNP are strongly correlated and predict changes in clinical variables and hemodynamics."
