Abstract:
To investigate the changes of plasma adrenomedullin(ADM) and adrenotensin(ADT) levels and their clinical significance in the pathological process of congestive heart failure(CHF), plasma levels of ADM and ADT in 45 patients with CHF before and after treatment were measured by specific radioimmunoassay. The results indicated that before treatment, plasma levels of ADM in class Ⅱ and Ⅲ CHF patients were 51.46?4.52pg/ml, 70.39?3.22pg/ml and plasma levels of ADT in class Ⅱ and Ⅲ CHF patients were 29.98?1.13pg/ml, 33.45?0.91pg/ml, respectively,which were higher than those of the control subjects(24.12?1.59pg/ml and 24.89?2.19pg/ml, respectively)(P
