Log-transformed plasma level of brain natriuretic peptide during the acute phase of Kawasaki disease is quantitatively associated with myocardial dysfunction
PURPOSE: Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) has been considered a biochemical marker for myocarditis in Kawasaki disease. We performed this study to determine its quantitative significance. METHODS: We attempted to correlate log-transformed BNP concentrations (log-BNP) and clinical, laboratory, and ech...
