Zusammenfassung

Background: N-Terminal pro Brain Natriuretic Peptide (NT-proBNP) is an established marker for myocardial stress. We evaluated the association of established predictors of NT-proBNP across its quantiles in older people. Methods: NT-proBNP levels were measured in participants at the Activity and Function in the Elderly in Ulm study-ActiFE Ulm. Quantile regression evaluated the association of age, sex, body mass index (BMI), smoking, cystatin C based glomerular filtration rate (GFR), hemoglobin (Hb), testosterone, C-reactive protein (CRP), history of hypertension (HTN), diabetes (DM), myocardial infarction (MI), he…
