ASSOCIATION OF NT-PROBNP, PULSE PRESSURE WITH HEART FAILURE AND CARDIOVASCULAR EVENTS: ATHEROSCLEROSIS RISK IN COMMUNNITIES (ARIC) STUDY

Pulse pressure (PP), a marker of arterial stiffness, and N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) have been associated with heart failure (HF) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). We examined whether the combination of PP and NT-proBNP identifies individuals at higher risk for
