BACKGROUND: B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and N-terminal pro-BNP (NT-pro-BNP) are key biomarkers used for heart failure (HF) management. Although traditional auscultation lacks objective evaluation, the SSS01-series phonocardiogram enables rapid r...
BACKGROUND: Limited access to echocardiography can delay the diagnosis of suspected heart failure (HF), which in turn postpones the initiation of optimal guideline-directed medical therapy. Although natriuretic peptides like B-type natriuretic peptid...

BACKGROUND: Patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH) are classified based on disease pathogenesis and hemodynamic drivers. Classification informs treatment. The heart failure biomarker NT-proBNP (N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide) is used to...
N-Terminal Pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide (NT-proBNP) is important for diagnosing and predicting heart failure or many other diseases. However, few studies have comprehensively assessed the factors correlated with NT-proBNP levels in people with cardi...
AIMS: Natriuretic peptide-based pre-heart failure screening has been proposed in recent guidelines. However, an effective strategy to identify screening targets from the general population, more than half of which are at risk for heart failure or pre...
AIMS: This study aims to develop and validate an optimal model for predicting worsening heart failure (WHF). Multiple machine learning (ML) algorithms were compared, and the results were interpreted using SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP). A clini...
AIMS: To explore the potential of N-terminal pro-B natriuretic peptide (NTproBNP) in identifying adverse outcomes, particularly cardiovascular adverse outcomes, in a population with obesity, and to establish a risk prediction model.
