“…The main diagnostic efficacy of this test consists of its high negative predictive value suggesting reliable exclusion of left ventricular dysfunction. Data concerning the diagnostic performance of NT-proANP in regard to left ventricular function among patients after myocardial infarction are conflicting [15,16]. For identifying patients who were clinically suspicious for heart failure, NT-proBNP and BNP were better markers than NT-proANP for mild systolic left ventricular dysfunction which was shown by ROC curves [17].…”

“…In their study, BNP had no relation to coronary artery stenosis, although NT-proBNP was not measured. 21 Nakagawa et al reported that BNP but not ANP levels increased in proportion to the scintigraphic myocardial infarction size despite the lack of heart failure in aymptomatic patients with previous myocardial infarction. 22 Choi et al reported that the BNP level correlated with echocardiographic wall motion score index and Gensini score in unstable angina and non-ST elevation myocardial infarction patients, respectively.…”

“…[9][10][11][12] The NT-proBNP level is affected by demographic variables such as age, gender, and ethnicity, and clinical characteristics such as hypertension and renal function. 13,14) Recent reports suggest that obesity, as indexed by elevated body mass index (BMI), also affects BNP and NT-proBNP levels, with lower circulating levels in those with a higher BMI.…”
