The relationship between the level of plasma B-type natriuretic peptide and mitral stenosis

Abstract: B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and N-terminal proBNP (NT-proBNP) are both secreted primarily from the ventricle myocardium in response to the increase in volume and pressure. We aimed to investigate the relationship between the severity of mitral stenosis (MS) and the level of plasma BNP. A total of 56 patients (50 female, 6 male) were included in the study. Mitral stenosis and its related parameters were evaluated by echocardiographic methods. Patients were divided into three groups as with mild, moderate a… Show more

“…Clinical, echocardiographic and laboratory findings in Table 1 were evaluated and univariable predictors of AF were determined. We employed an epidemiological approach and factors that have been shown to be multivariable predictors of AF in the previous studies [1,[12][13][14] or P \ 0.15 with univariable analysis in Table 1 have been accepted as potential predictors. Therefore, smoking, age, functional capacity, mitral valve area, ejection fraction, left atrial diameter, and NT-proBNP, HsCRP and CA-125 levels have been entered into a multivariable logistic regression analysis.…”

“…On the other hand, serum levels of Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), a marker of left ventricular enddiastolic pressure and Carbohydrate Antigen 125 (CA-125), a marker of venous congestion and activation of peritoneal mesothelium have been shown to be increased in patients with MS [13][14][15][16].…”

“…Interestingly, similar to our observation, they showed that those with atrial fibrillation had significantly higher NT-pro-BNP levels compared to those with sinus rhythm. In the same way, Eryol et al [12] indicated that NT-pro-BNP level in the group with severe mitral stenosis was considerably higher than that in the mild mitral stenosis and, in fact, when patients were taken together, as the area of the mitral valve decreased, the level of BNP underwent a corresponding increase. As shown by Iltumur et al [13], NT-pro-BNP levels demonstrated a significantly greater increase in severe MS than in moderate MS; in their study, there was a positive correlation with pulmonary artery pressure and a negative correlation with mitral valve area.…”

“…All studies concerning serum levels of BNP and NT-proBNP in mitral stenosis (MS) report a marked increase in the levels of these peptides in MS. (21)(22)(23) There are different reasons for this increase. Many of these patients are in atrial fi brillation (AF), which is known to be associated with increased levels.…”
