Impact of Bariatric Surgery on N-Terminal Fragment of the Prohormone Brain Natriuretic Peptide and Left Ventricular Diastolic Function

Abstract Background Obesity is often associated with left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction (DD). Elevated N-terminal fragment of the prohormone brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is considered a biomarker of LV dysfunction. Weight loss induced by bariatric surgery may improve LV DD, but con...
