“…Prior studies have shown that for such patients, NT-proBNP level is significantly correlated with eGFR; in particular, NT-proBNP level increases as eGFR decreases [5,6]. Moreover, investigations have also revealed that the combined use of NT-proBNP level and eGFR can improve the identification of patients at high risk of acute myocardial infarction and heart failure [7][8][9]. Similarly, NT-proBNP levels are influenced by age [10].…”
