1. Postoperative transient elevation of serum cancer antigen 125 in non-small cell lung cancer patients
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The aim of this retrospective study was to investigate the correlation of transiently elevated postoperative serum cancer antigen 125 levels and prognosis in patients with non-small cell lung cancer. METHODS: A total of 181 non-small cell lung cancer patients with normal levels of preoperative serum cancer antigen 125 were statistically

2. Serum Elabela Level Significantly Increased in Patients with Complete Heart Block
Abstract Objective: To investigate the change in serum Elabela level, a new apelinergic system peptide, in patients with complete atrioventricular (AV) block and healthy controls. Methods: The study included 50 patients with planned cardiac pacemaker (PM) implantation due to complete AV block and 50 healthy controls with similar age and gender. Elabela lev

3. The Influence of Aortic Pulse Wave Velocity on Short-Term Functional Capacity in Patients with Mild Paravalvular Regurgitation Following Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation
Abstract Introduction: Recently, the clinical significance of mild paravalvular aortic regurgitation (PAR) has been evaluated and suggested that it can be predictor of clinical outcomes. In our study, we aimed to investigate the interaction of aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV) and mild PAR and their effects on the functional status of patients after transcat

4. Echocardiographically Measured Epicardial Fat Predicts New-onset Atrial Fibrillation after Cardiac Surgery
Abstract Objective: The current study aims to investigate the role of echocardiographically measured epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) thickness in the prediction of new-onset atrial fibrillation (AF) following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery. Methods: One hundred and twenty-four patients scheduled to undergo isolated on-pump CABG due to coron

5. Relationship between right atrium area and right ventricular ejection fraction on magnetic resonance imaging: comparison with other prognostic markers in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension
Resumo Objetivo: Comparar a área do átrio direito (AD) e a fração de ejeção do ventrículo direito (FEVD) com outros marcadores prognósticos conhecidos em pacientes com hipertensão arterial pulmonar (HAP). Materiais e Métodos: Identificamos, retrospectivamente, 74 pacientes com diagnóstico de HAP por cateterismo cardíaco direito em um centro de

6. Relationship between Brain Natriuretic Peptide and Recurrence of Atrial Fibrillation after Successful Electrical Cardioversion: an Updated Meta-Analysis
Abstract Objective: To investigate the relationship between brain natriuretic peptide and recurrence of atrial fibrillation after successful electrical cardioversion. Methods: Medline and Embase databases were used to identify publications evaluating BNP/N-Terminal (NT)-proBNP levels in association with atrial fibrillation recurrence after successful elect

7. Biological significance of miR-126 expression in atrial fibrillation and heart failure
We investigated the biological significance of microRNA-126 (miR-126) expression in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and/or heart failure (HF) to examine the possible mechanism of miR-126-dependent AF and development of HF. A total of 103 patients were divided into three groups: AF group (18 men and 17 women, mean age: 65.62±12.72 years), HF group (17

8. Changes in cardiac aldosterone and its synthase in rats with chronic heart failure: an intervention study of long-term treatment with recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide
The physiological mechanisms involved in isoproterenol (ISO)-induced chronic heart failure (CHF) are not fully understood. In this study, we investigated local changes in cardiac aldosterone and its synthase in rats with ISO-induced CHF, and evaluated the effects of treatment with recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide (rhBNP). Sprague-Dawley rats were

9. Influence of preoperative serum N-terminal pro-brain type natriuretic peptide on the postoperative outcome and survival rates of coronary artery bypass patients
BACKGROUND: The N-terminal fragment of pro-brain type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is an established biomarker for cardiac failure. OBJECTIVE: To determine the influence of preoperative serum NT-proBNP on postoperative outcome and mid-term survival in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). METHODS: In 819 patients undergoing isolated

10. Avaliação dos níveis plasmáticos de peptídeo natriurético tipo B e relação com obesidade mórbida e comorbidades associadas
Following obesity epidemics, severe obesity has been increasing more importantly than any other form of obesity. Hence, morbid conditions associated to severe obesity, such as heart failure (HF), have had an impressive increase, as well. Diagnosing HF may be challenging, due to unspecific symptoms and signs, and limitations of diagnostic methods. In this con

11. Valor do fator natriurético tipo B e de outras variáveis como preditores de localização do território de isquemia miocárdica aguda e para avaliação prognóstica no infarto agudo do miocárdio sem supradesnivelamento do segmento ST / Value of B-type natriuretic peptide and other variables as predictors of location of the territory of acute myocardial ischemia and for the prognostic evaluation in non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction
INTRODUÇÃO: No infarto agudo do miocárdio sem supradesnivelamento do segmento de ST (IAMSS) ocorre limitação dos métodos diagnósticos atuais para localizar o território do ventrículo esquerdo em risco e realizar avaliação prognóstica. O objetivo deste estudo prospectivo foi determinar no IAMSS, quais fatores apresentam capacidade de predizer a lo

12. N-terminal-pro-brain natriuretic peptide, but not brain natriuretic peptide, is increased in patients with severe obesity
Elevated body mass index (BMI) has been reported as a risk factor for heart failure. Prevention of heart failure through identification and management of risk factors and preclinical phases of the disease is a priority. Levels of natriuretic peptides as well as activity of their receptors have been found altered in obese persons with some conflicting results
