J Cardiopulm Rehabil Prev 28:99-106. 2008..To assess the effects of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) on autonomic activity, endothelial function, and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels in patients with chronic heart failure...
Incremental value of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide over left ventricle ejection fraction and aerobic capacity for estimating prognosis in heart failure patientsManolis S Kallistratos
First Cardiology Department, Onassis Cardiac Surgery Center, Athens, Greece
J Heart Lung Transplant 27:1251-6. 2008..N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) plasma levels have been associated with indices of left ventricular (LV) function and aerobic capacity in heart failure...

First Cardiology Department, Onassis Cardiac Surgery Center, Athens, Greece
J Heart Lung Transplant 26:516-21. 2007..The aim of our study was to use NT Pro BNP for the prediction of low functional class patients and also to detect candidates for cardiac transplantation...
