Atriopeptin: A Cardiac Hormone Intimately Involved in Fluid, Electrolyte, and Blood-Pressure Homeostasis

Epstein, Franklin H., Epstein, Franklin H., Needleman, Philip, Greenwald, James E.·1986·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

This review focuses on the recent discovery of atriopeptin, a peptide hormone that is intimately involved in the regulation of renal and cardiovascular homeostasis. This peptide, which is stored in the atrial cardiocyte, is capable of exerting potent, selective, and transient effects on fluid and electrolyte balance and on blood pressure. Hundreds of publications have appeared since the announcement of the discovery of this structure about two years ago. The objective of this interpretive review is to provide a framework for understanding current and future findings about atriopeptin and their implications. The elucidation of the intricacies of this newly discovered . . .

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
