Elevated plasma concentrations of atrial and brain natriuretic peptide in type 1 diabetic subjects
Abstract
BackgroundThe intravenous infusion of atrial (ANP) and brain (BNP) natriuretic peptides have been shown to increase urinary albumin excretion in type 1 diabetes.AimsTo measure plasma ANP and BNP concentrations in patients with type 1 diabetes and to examine the parameters associated with elevated plasma concentrations.MethodsWe measured plasma ANP and BNP concentrations, UAER, HbA1C systolic blood pressure, and left ventricular mass index. …
