Abstract

To define the relation between atrial pressures and the release of atrial natriuretic peptide, we measured plasma concentrations of the peptide in 26 patients with cardiac disease--11 with normal atrial pressures and 15 with elevated atrial pressures (11 of these 15 had elevated pressures in both atria). Mean peptide levels (+/- SEM) in the peripheral venous blood were increased in the 11 patients with cardiac disease and normal atrial pressures, as compared with 60 healthy controls (48 +/- 14 vs. 17 +/- 2 pmol per liter). In the patients with elevated atrial pressures, peptide concentrations were increased twofold in peripheral venous, right atrial, pulmonary arterial, and systemic arterial plasma, as compared with the concentrations in the patients with normal atrial pressures. A step-up in peptide concentration was seen between the venous and right atrial plasma (P less than 0.002) and between the pulmonary and systemic arterial plasma (P less than 0.01), suggesting release of the peptide from the atria. A linear relation was found between right atrial pressure and right atrial peptide concentration (r = 0.835, P less than 0.001) and between pulmonary wedge pressure and the systemic arterial peptide concentration (r = 0.866, P less than 0.001). Right atrial pressure and the peptide concentration both increased with exercise testing in the nine patients evaluated. We conclude that the release of atrial natriuretic peptide is at least partly regulated by right and left atrial pressures. Distinguishing the relative contributions of the two atria and defining the role of peptide release in the pathogenesis of heart failure will require further investigation.

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.
