Clinical effect of obesity on N‐terminal pro‐B‐type natriuretic peptide cut‐off concentrations for the diagnosis of acute heart failure

AIMS: Obese patients have lower natriuretic peptide concentrations. We hypothesized that adjusting the concentration of N‐terminal pro‐B‐type natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP) for obesity could further increase its clinical utility in the early diagnosis of acute heart failure (AHF). METHODS AND RESUL...
