Background Morbidity and mortality from cardiovascular diseases increase rapidly in women after menopause. Relationship between menopause and hypertension has been a topic of investigation for several years. There are no evidences about the influence of menopause on brain natriuretic peptide level. Present studies indicate the important prognostic value of this parameter in this group of patients. The aim of this study was to assess the level of N-terminal part of brain natriuretic peptide as well as the correlation of this factor with values of blood pressure in hypertensive women in relation to post- and premenopausal hormonal status. Material and methods The study included 112 women aged 45 to 55 years (mean age 50.73 ± 1.82 years) ...
