Interaction of Body Mass Index on the Association Between N‐Terminal‐Pro‐b‐Type Natriuretic Peptide and Morbidity and Mortality in Patients With Acute Heart Failure: Findings From ASCEND‐HF (Acute Study of Clinical Effectiveness of Nesiritide in Decompensated Heart Failure)

BACKGROUND: Higher body mass index (BMI) is associated with lower circulating levels of N‐terminal‐pro‐b‐type natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP). The Interaction between BMI and NT‐proBNP with respect to clinical outcomes is not well characterized in patients with acute heart failure. METHODS AND RESUL...
