P7.10 ARTERIAL STIFFNESS IS A DETERMINANT OF INCREASED LEVELS OF AMINO TERMINAL PRO-B-TYPE NATRIURETIC PEPTIDE – THE ROTTERDAM STUDY
Objective: Arterial stiffness is one of the main determinants of the workload of the left ventricle. Amino-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is released by cardiomyocytes in response to left ventricular wall stress. The aim of this study was to investigate whether arterial stiffnes...
