The association of the N-terminal pro-brain-type natriuretic peptide response to exercise with disease severity in therapy-naive pulmonary arterial hypertension: a cohort study

BACKGROUND: While the N-terminal pro-brain-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) at rest is known to be associated with prognosis in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), it is unclear if the NT-proBNP response to exercise (ΔNT-proBNP) can contribute to a better assessment of disease severity.
