Is Brain Natriuretic Peptide Production Decreased in Obese Subjects?

Is Brain Natriuretic Peptide Production Decreased in Obese Subjects?

The incidence of HF approaches 10 per 1,000 among persons older than 65 years (2). Because both syndromes are highly prevalent, patients are likely to have both simultaneously. Â t = 0 Months t = 3 Months t = 6 Months p Values (0-3 Months) p Values (0-6 Months) BNP (pg/ml) 4.5(2.4-9.2) 13.4(9.1-19.1...
