“…24 The cut-off 55.0 pg/mL was also used in previous studies. 7,23 Given that approximately 60% of the participants had NT-proBNP <55.0 pg/mL ( Supplementary Figure), we used the approximate median NT-proBNP to stratify these participants into 2 groups (NT-proBNP <30.0 pg/mL and ≥30.0 pg/mL). The means and proportions were compared using Student's t-test, chi-squared test, analysis of variance (ANOVA), analysis of covariance (ANCOVA), and multiple logistic regression analysis.…”

“…On a 12-lead ECG, the PTFV1 may be a useful marker for identifying individuals at a higher risk of future cardiovascular events, particularly in countries where ECGs are commonly performed in the general population. Several studies have shown a significant association between plasma BNP and N-terminal pro-BNP levels and cardiovascular events in the general population [9][10][11][12][13][14]32) . However, the appropriate threshold levels of plasma BNP that indicate an increased risk of future cardiovascular events in the general population with no cardiovascular history remain controversial.…”

“…First, the follow-up period was 4.7 years on average, ranging from 0.01 to 7.0 years. However, the Ohasama Study showed that predictive ability decreased at follow-up periods of more than 5 years after NT-proBNP measurement 9 ) . Second, the numbers of lacunar, large-artery occlusive, and embolic stroke cases were small so that further studies are necessary to confirm our findings.…”

“…We categorized NT-proBNP into four groups using clinical cutoff points suggested by prior reports 9 , 11 , 22 , 23 ) . Baseline characteristics with respect to NT-proBNP categories were tested using analysis of covariance, and trends of risk factors across NT-proBNP levels were tested by regression analysis.…”
