Among individuals without cardiovascular disease, NT-proBNP and hs-cTnT were poorly correlated at baseline (rho 0.083) and demonstrated differential associations with demographic and cardiac factors.
Cohort (n=1,877)
No
What factors are associated with baseline and serial changes in NT-proBNP and hs-cTnT among individuals without CVD in the general population?
In a general population without CVD, NT-proBNP and hs-cTnT are nonredundant biomarkers associated with different demographic and cardiac factors, suggesting distinct pathophysiological pathways.
Effect estimate: Spearman rho 0.083
p-value: p=0.015
Among individuals without CVD in the general population, NT-proBNP and hs-cTnT are nonredundant biomarkers that are differentially associated with demographic and cardiac factors. These findings indicate that hs-cTnT and NT-proBNP may reflect different pathophysiological pathways.
Puleo et al. (Tue,) conducted a cohort in Without known cardiovascular disease (n=1,877). NT-proBNP and hs-cTnT measurement was evaluated on Correlation between baseline NT-proBNP and hs-cTnT (Spearman rho 0.083, p=0.015). Among individuals without cardiovascular disease, NT-proBNP and hs-cTnT were poorly correlated at baseline (rho 0.083) and demonstrated differential associations with demographic and cardiac factors.
