Atrial Natriuretic Peptides, Right Atrial Infarction and Prognosis of Patients with Myocardial Infarction—A Single-Center Study

Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is secreted in response to the stretching of the atrial wall. Atrial ischemia most likely impairs the ability of atrial myocytes to produce ANP.
