An Increased B-Type Natriuretic Peptide in the Absence of a Cardiac Abnormality Identifies Those Whose Left Ventricular Mass Will Increase Over Time
OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to identify the relationship of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) with evolution of left ventricular mass (LVM) in optimally treated primary prevention patients. BACKGROUND: Patients who have an elevated BNP no cardiac abnormality on echocardiography are comm...
