Abstract:
Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) is one of the most sensitive and specific laboratory indicators during cardiac dysfunction.N-Terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is the N-terminal precursor of BNP.The functions of both are not consistent,but its physicochemical properties are superior to BNP.Now it has been widely used in the diagnosis and treatment monitoring of cardiovascular diseases.In the field of stroke,the testing and application of BNP,especially NT-proBNP is less.This article reviews the roles of NT-proBNP in cardio-cerebrovascular diseases,especially in ischemic cerebrovascular disease.
