Relationship between N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide levels and metabolic syndrome
INTRODUCTION: Previous studies have shown that obese individuals have reduced natriuretic peptide levels. But conflicting data exist on the relation of natriuretic peptide levels to other metabolic risk factors. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We investigated the relationship between plasma N-terminal pro-B-t...

description | INTRODUCTION: Previous studies have shown that obese individuals have reduced natriuretic peptide levels. But conflicting data exist on the relation of natriuretic peptide levels to other metabolic risk factors. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We investigated the relationship between plasma N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide levels (NT-proBNP) and metabolic syndrome (MetS) and metabolic risk factors in 469 patients free of heart failure. Two hundred thirty diagnosed MetS cases and 239 non-MetS cases were included in this study. Echocardiography examinations were performed and left ventricular mass index was calculated according to the Devereux correction formula. NT-proBNP was measured by electrochemiluminescence. The log-transformed NT-proBNP levels were used for abnormal distribution. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to assess the association between levels of NT-proBNP and metabolic factors. Covariance analysis was used for group comparisons. RESULTS: Log NT-proBNP levels were independently related to age, gender, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, triglyceride, high density lipoprotein cholesterol, low density lipoprotein cholesterol, left ventricular mass index and left ventricular ejection fraction in multiple linear regression analysis (p < 0.05). Adjusted log NT-proBNP levels were lower in persons with MetS compared with those without MetS (p < 0.05). Individuals with hyperlipidaemia, elevated body mass index, diastolic blood pressure and fasting plasma glucose had lower levels of log NT-proBNP than those without MetS (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: There is a relationship between metabolic components and lower plasma NT-proBNP concentration. These findings raise the possibility that reduced plasma NT-proBNP levels are a manifestation of MetS, which might possess significant clinical and pathophysiological implications. |
