“…These results agreed with Naganuma et al who reported that high plasma BNP concentrations in HD patients were associated with volume overload [3]. Also Nishikimi et al concluded that plasma BNP levels were closely associated with the amount of extracellular water and the overhydration status in hemodialysis patients [14]. On the other hand, Osajima et al found no significant correlation between changes in plasma BNP concentration and reductions in body weight during HD [15].…”

“…BNP predicted mortality in dialysis patients without heart failure, and the prognostic value of BNP was independent of LVMI and LVEF (27). Furthermore, changes in BNP levels with hemodialysis correlated with extracellular fluid retention and volume change independent of LV function (43)(44)(45)(46). However, there are as yet no data on this aspect in PD patients.…”

“…27,28 Likewise, higher BNP and NTpro-BNP levels were observed in both HD and PD patients with underlying coronary artery disease. 35,41 A major factor that confounds the interpretation of elevated BNP and NTpro-BNP and limits the current utility of BNP and NT-pro-BNP in the ESRD population is renal dysfunction. Both BNP and NT-pro-BNP increased with deteriorating renal function.…”
