Factor Information
Data ID 981
Factor NT-proBNP--Age (Infants <1 y)
Description Estimates for linear mixed model of repeated NT-proBNP. The response variable is log-transformed NT-proBNP, RE%corresponding to an estimate β, expressed as expected percentage change in NT-proBNP, calculated as (exp[β] - 1)*100.
Biomarker YES
Classification E2 (physiological factor - biochemical index)
Association
Application prognosis and risk assessment
Objective To assess the relationship between N-terminal pro–brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels at different time points and early outcome, and to evaluate the reliability of NT-proBNP level as a predictor of early outcome after surgery in a large series of children with congenital heart disease (CHD).
p Value <0.0001
Conclusion infants were found to have 76.8% higher expected NT-proBNP than the group of older children.
