In the urgent-care setting, determining the cause of dyspnea has been difficult because traditional, subjective methods of distinguishing heart failure from pulmonary conditions leave a high level of ...
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 ...
Using Mendelian randomization, Roman Pfister of the University of Cambridge, UK and colleagues demonstrate a potentially causal link between low levels of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), a hormone ...
