N-terminal B-type natriuretic peptide and the association with left ventricular diastolic function in a population at high risk of incident heart failure: Results of the SCReening Evaluation of the Evolution of New-Heart Failure Study (SCREEN-HF)

N-terminal B-type natriuretic peptide and the association with left ventricular diastolic function in a population at high risk of incident heart failure: Results of the SCReening Evaluation of the Evolution of New-Heart Failure Study (SCREEN-HF)

AimsImpaired diastolic function is associated with increased morbidity and mortality, but antecedents and predictors of progression to heart failure (HF) are not well understood. We examined associations between NT-proBNP, HF risk factors, and diastolic function in a population at high risk for inci...
