Background: Plasma B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) is used as a diagnostic marker of
cardiovascular diseases. BNP is secreted mainly from the myocardium and has been …

Results The mean BNP levels were 284.16±382.79 at presentation and 273.78±451.91 at
72 h in the patient group, whereas the mean BNP level was 25.29±13.47 in controls. There …

Introduction: This study aims to evaluate the relationship between increased B-type
natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels in stroke patients and clinical parameters such as age, sex …

Aim: We investigated to study the prognostic importance of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) in
ischemic stroke. Materials and Methods: We prospectively enrolled 100 patients with acute …

An increased B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) level is associated with cardioembolic stroke
because of atrial fibrillation. However, data associating the measurement time of BNP and …

Background Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) is believed to be a diagnostic marker for
cardiovascular diseases, including atrial fibrillation (AF). Recent studies have incriminated …

Background: Sparse published data are available regarding the prognostic importance of
plasma N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in patients with acute ischemic …

Abstract Background and Objective Elevated levels of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) can
predict the prognosis of patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). However, the association …

Elevated serum brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels are associated with cardioembolic
stroke mainly because of atrial fibrillation (AF). However, the mechanisms of increased …

Background: Acute blood pressure (BP) elevation and cardiac abnormalities are known to
follow ischemic stroke. Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), which is produced in response to …
