- Title
MR-proANP Associated with Body Mass Index in Patients with Anorexia Nervosa.
- Authors
Goetze, Jens P.; Gustafsson, Finn; Pedersen, Oluf; Støving, René Klinkby
- Abstract
The article presents a study which hypothesized that low body mass index (BMI) might be associated with natriuretic peptide concentrations, where the association theoretically should entail increased concentrational study. Topics discussed include reason for choosing the atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) system in the study, characteristics of the patients in the study, and association between BMI and midregional (MR)-proANP in patients with anorexia nervosa.
