Results from this study3

No result from this study comes from a test of the peptide.

Natural levels measured3

These results measure the body's own peptide. Nobody was given the peptide. They are not evidence about taking it. They are left out of key results, evidence counts and charts.

    In patients with acute myocardial infarction, plasma VIP showed no further increase two or more hours after onset.

    Summary
    Two or more hours after the onset of acute myocardial infarction there was no subsequent increase in peripheral plasma vasoactive intestinal peptide levels (n = 26).

    Summary · context
    The plasma levels of vasoactive intestinal peptide in peripheral vein were measured in human acute myocardial infarction.

    This result measures the body's own Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP, aviptadil). Nobody was given the peptide. It is not evidence about taking it.

    Summary
    The plasma vasoactive intestinal peptide level was increased within 1 h after the onset of the symptoms of acute myocardial infarction (Group 1, n = 9), compared with normal values (6.3 +/- 0.7 vs. 2.8 +/- 0.9 pg/ml, P < 0.05).
