B-type Natriuretic Peptide Levels and Mortality in Patients With and Without Heart Failure

BACKGROUND: Circulating B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) concentrations strongly predict mortality in heart failure (HF) patients. Both cardiac and extra-cardiac stimuli influence BNP levels, suggesting that BNP might have similar prognostic value in patients without HF. OBJECTIVES: To compare the p...
