Vessel dilator is associated with survival after acute myocardial infarction

1995 
Abstract To assess whether infarct size, ischemic area and/or survival correlates with circulating atrial natriuretic peptides (long acting sodium stimulator, vessel dilator, or atrial natriuretic factor), these peptides were measured in a canine model of acute myocardial infarction. Elevations in the circulating concentrations of atrial natriuretic factor, vessel dilator, and long acting sodium stimulator were significant ( P P P r = 0.825; P = 0.0009), vessel dilator was the only atrial natriuretic peptide that correlated with survival.
