N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide – an early independent predictor of anthracycline-induced cardiomyopathy

Pascu Alina Mihaela , Bisoc Alina , Radoi Mariana

Introduction: Early prediction of anticancer therapy cardiotoxicity is essential for applying proper preventive and supporting therapeutic strategies.Objective: To evaluate plasma N-terminal fragment of pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) related to cardiac dysfunction assessed by transthoracic 2D echocardiography (2D-TTE) in patients with cancer and early onset asymptomatic anthracycline-induced cardiomyopathy (AIC).Methods:...

Introduction: The study aimed to analyze the efficiency of a concomitant N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and cardiac high-sensitivity troponin T (hs-cTnT) testing in diagnosing non-ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) in patients initially negative for the standard fourth-generation assay of cardiac troponin T (cTnT), but with high clinical probability of non-ST-segment-elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS).Meth...

N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in patients with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) compared to patients with unstable angina (UA) in a lot of patients admitted for non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS)

Introduction: The study aimed to evaluate the differences in secretion of NT-proBNP and cardiac troponin T (cTnT), in patients with NSTE-ACS for the early detection of myocardial ischemia in NSTE-ACS.Methods: Hundred and sixteen patients admitted for non-ST-elevation ACS (NSTE-ACS), 71(61.2%) men, mean age 68.7±10.2 were prospectively investigated. Plasma NT-proBNP and cTnT were measured by electrochemiluminescence (Elecsys/Cobas e, Roche Diagnostic...
