NT-proBNP Underestimates Heart Failure Risk for Certain Patients
The N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptides (NT-proBNP) concentration could mean drastically different absolute risks of heart failure (HF) for different demographics, according to a cohort study suggesting the importance of sex and race in interpreting risk for people free of HF at baseline.

Elevated Lipoprotein(a) Mediates Risk of Atrial Fibrillation
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia in adults, with a prevalence between 0.5% and 2%. Longer life span and higher prevalence of AF risk factors are projected to further increase the global prevalence of AF. More...27 Apr 2022
Urine Testing Differentiates Glomerular from Tubulointerstitial Diseases on Kidney Biopsy
Histological examination of kidney biopsy tissue can help differentiate between glomerular and tubulointerstitial diseases, as well as differentiate between their underlying etiologies and subtypes. More...22 Apr 2022
Lipidomics Approach Developed to Predict Cardiovascular Disease, Diabetes
Current detection of cardiovascular disease and diabetes relies heavily on factors such as patient history, sex, age, body mass index, as well as blood panels measuring blood glucose and lipid metabolites, such as high- and low-density cholesterol and triglycerides. More...18 Apr 2022
Sex Hormones Influence HbA1c Levels in Non-Diabetic Population
Sex hormones, including estrogen, progesterone, and androgens, are synthesized by the human gonads and adrenal cortex. Their main role is to promote development of the reproductive system and maintain secondary sexual characteristics. More...15 Apr 2022
