Midregional pro-atrial natriuretic peptide in the general population/Insights from the Gutenberg Health Study

Abstract

BACKGROUND: The use of biomarkers is firmly established for the assessment of cardiovascular disease. Emerging biomarkers such as midregional pro-atrial natriuretic peptide (MR-proANP) challenge established markers regarding risk prediction and stratification ability. The aim of the present study was to describe the distribution of a contemporary MR-proANP assay in a large population-representative sample and to evaluate the association with prevalent cardiac diseases and cardiovascular risk factors. METHODS: MR-proANP was determined by the use of a contemporary commercially available assay (BRAHMS GmbH, Hennigsdorf, Germany) in a representative sample of 5000 participants from the large population-based Gutenberg Health Study. N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) was used as a comparator. RESULTS: Mean age was 55.5 ± 10.9 years. Coronary artery disease (CAD) was documented in 4.6%, heart failure (HF) in 1.5% of the study participants. We observed a moderate to strong correlation of the biomarkers with age, diabetes, hypertension, smoking, renal function, prevalence of CAD and HF. Males showed lower MR-proANP concentrations than females. MR-proANP showed no relevant correlation with BMI (ρ=-0.030) and CRP (ρ=0.039). Reference limits for MR-proANP representing the 95th/97.5th/99th percentile were determined for healthy individuals with 116/132/169 pmol/mL. CONCLUSIONS: The current analysis in a large population-based sample elucidates the correlations and distribution of MR-proANP. Its concentration in healthy individuals depends on prevalent cardiovascular diseases and classical risk factors. The reported population-based reference values might be useful for distinguishing between healthy and diseased individuals, thus improving risk stratification and triaging in various clinical settings.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Increased natriuretic peptide levels are associated with CVD and early heart failure, whereas overweight and insulin resistance decrease ANP levels.

    “Increased levels of the NPs are associated with CVD and early heart failure (9), but in contrast large cohort studies have shown that overweight and insulin resistance decrease levels of ANP (10).”

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.
