Acute changes in circulating natriuretic peptide levels in relation to myocardial ischemia

Abstract: Transient myocardial ischemia was associated with an immediate rise in circulating BNP levels, and the magnitude of rise was proportional to the severity of ischemia. These findings demonstrate an important link between the severity of an acute ischemic insult and the circulating levels of BNP.

“…This ability could be attributed to higher levels of natriuretic peptides in patients with asymptomatic myocardial ischemia15, 16 and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation,17, 18 which could predispose to both MI and stroke.…”

“…However, as the incidences of outcomes differ between patients with HF8 and patients with a recent ACS9 in a stable phase, it is less established how natriuretic peptides are associated with cardiovascular outcomes, especially subsequent MI and stroke, in the latter population 3, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14. Concentrations of natriuretic peptides may be affected by both asymptomatic myocardial ischemia15, 16 and atrial fibrillation,17, 18 which could make BNP and NT‐proBNP relevant as predictors of MI and stroke. However, trials investigating patients at high risk of atherosclerotic events have found conflicting results regarding both the predictive ability of natriuretic peptides and cardiovascular outcomes—including MI and stroke—as well as the predictive strength of BNP versus NT‐proBNP 19, 20, 21, 22…”

“…Despite careful patient selection, occult myocardial ischemia, which may raise circulating NP levels (42), cannot be ruled out in some of our CKD patients. Intensive screening for coronary artery disease was not systematically performed as all patients were free of symptoms or signs of cardiovascular disease.…”
