Prognostic value of the right ventricle diameter, pulmonary arterial pressure and biomarkers in patients with acute heart failure
The aim of the paper was to examine the echocardiographic parameters of the right ventricle (RV), its diameter and pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP); to determine their relationship to B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), troponin and (TnI) and high-sensititity C-raective protein (hsCRP), and to evaluate their prognostic significance to one-year morta...
