[EX Q]: B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and N-terminal-pro-BNP (NT-pro-BNP) are important diagnostic tools for patients with suspected cardiac disorders. The aim of this study was to evaluate the predictive value of plasma NT-pro-BNP in identifying cardiac metastases in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and dyspnoea.', 'A total of 120 patients, median age 62 years (range 46-83), with NSCLC and dyspnoea were studied. Patients with heart failure or documented coronary artery disease were excluded. Echocardiographic imaging was used to detect cardiac metastases and estimate global left ventricular function. Ejection fraction and E/A ratio from transmitral inflow pattern were calculated. Plasma NT-pro-BNP was also measured. 72 patients (72/120, 60%) with cardiac metastases were identified.', 'NT-pro-BNP was significantly higher in patients with metastases (1347.5 +/- 1004.30 pg/ml vs. 159.02 +/- 93.29 pg/ml; p = 0.001). No differences between groups, regarding s-creatinine (p = 0.45), haemoglobin (p = 0.71), left ventricular hypertrophy (p = 0.91), and diastolic dysfunction (p = 0.79), were observed.

[EX Q]: P53 is a key protein which controls cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in response to DNA damage. Auto-antibodies against p53 have been detected in some cancer patients and also in patients with autoimmune diseases. In these patients, the main cause of anti-p53 antibody occurrence was considered to be increased intracellular p53 protein in cancer cells and autoreactive lymphocytes, respectively. Intracellular p53 also increases with cardiomyocyte apoptosis during heart failure and autoreactive lymphocytes play a role in the course of idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (IDC) and ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM). Based on these observations, we hypothesized that anti-p53 antibody response may also occur in patients with heart failure due to ICM and IDC.', 'The aim of this study was to evaluate anti-p53 antibodies in the serum of patients with heart failure due to IDC and ICM.', '70 eligible patients with heart failure and severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction (mean fractional shortening 12.03 +/- 3.93%) were included in the study. The aetiology of heart failure was IDC in 26 patients and ICM in 44 patients, according to the angiographic and echocardiographic findings.', 'Anti-p53 antibodies were not detected in any of the patients.

[EX Q]: To investigate the lamina cribrosa (LC) depth and its relationship with the cup-to-disc ratio (CDR) in the eyes with generalized increased optic disc cupping and CDR asymmetry.', 'Glaucoma suspect subjects with a CDR0.7, CDR asymmetry 0.2 in the absence of visual field (VF) loss, and normal control subjects were enrolled. The optic nerve head was imaged using the enhanced depth imaging modes of Spectralis optical coherence tomography. The LC depth was determined at the mid-horizontal, and the superior and inferior mid-peripheral regions of the optic nerve head.', 'Disc area and CDRs were larger in the glaucoma suspect group compared with the control group (P<0.001). The mean LC depth was significantly greater in the disc area-matched glaucoma suspect group compared with the normal control group (P<0.001). The mean LC depth was positively correlated with the average and vertical CDRs (r=0.755 and 0.664, respectively; both P<0.001), which was maintained after controlling for the disc area (r=0.756 and 0.645, respectively; both P<0.001). In eyes with CDR asymmetry, the LC was located more posteriorly in eyes with a higher CDR compared with fellow eyes with a lower CDR (P<0.001).
