摘要:
Subject of the present invention are assays and in vitro methods for determining a prognosis for a patient having an acute coronary syndrome, whereby the level of procalcitonin or fragments thereof is measured in a sample obtained from said patient. Said level of procalcitonin or fragments thereof may then be correlated to a predisposition to an adverse outcome of said acute coronary syndrome.
摘要:
The invention relates to a method for risk stratification for acute coronary syndrome (ACS), especially acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and angina pectoris (AP), where provasopressin (proAVP) or fragments and partial peptides thereof, especially copeptin or neurophysin II, is determined by means of an in vitro diagnosis.
摘要:
An in vitro process for the detection and early detection of neurodegenerative diseases, for determination of the severity, and to evaluate the progression of and render a prognoses of neurogenerative diseases, in a patient suffering from a subjectively or objectively detectable cognitive impairment, by determining the concentration of an analyte selected from natriuretic peptides, in particular ANP, and, if necessary, BNP and/or CNP in a biological fluid of the patient, whereby the determination of the analyte is performed directly and/or indirectly as the determination of a relevant co-peptide generated from a mutual propeptide, and is based upon the measured concentration of the determined analyte thus making it possible to form conclusions about a neurodegenerative disease or an early form typical of such a disease or the course of the disease and/or the success of the efforts to relieve or prevent the disease.
摘要:
The invention relates to the use of gastrokine 1 (GKN1; SEQ ID NO:1) as a humoral biomarker for the diagnostic detection, progression prognosis, and progression and treatment monitoring of inflammations and infections.
摘要:
The use of copeptin as diagnostic marker for the determination of the physiological release of vasopressin, especially in connection with the diagnosis, prognosis and the monitoring of the course of diseases as cardiac diseases, shock, including septic shock, sepsis and various types of cancer and tumours.
摘要:
The ratio of concentrations of pro-adrenomedullin (pro-ADM)/pro-endothelin (pro-END) immunoreactivity in body fluids of critically ill patients is used as for the diagnosis, course control and prognosis, including an assessment of the mortality risk, of severe life threatening diseases. Further, a treatment of critically ill patients having high levels of pro-ADM but insufficient levels of pro-END immunoreactivities with a medicament comprising vasoconstrictive endothelin or its precursors, and/or endothelin agonists or adrenomedullin antagonists is provided.

摘要:
The invention relates to a method for the diagnosis, and/or risk stratification, and/or outcome prognosis of cardiac insufficiency for NYHA I patients, wherein a determination of the proANP marker, NT-proANP marker, or fragments or partial peptides thereof is carried out parallel to a determination of BNP, proBNP, and/or NT-proBNP on patients to be examined.

摘要:
The invention relates to a method for diagnosis and/or risk assessment of pancreatic diabetes, in particular of diabetic sequelae, wherein a determination of the marker mid-regional proAdrenomedullin (MR-proADM: SEQ ID No. 2) or a partial peptide or fragment thereof or if contained in a marker combination (Panel, Cluster) is carried out on a patient under investigation. The invention further relates to a diagnostic device and a kit for carrying out said method.
