Excerpt

The association between levels of N-terminal fragment of pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), troponin T and prognostic outcomes in patients after ischemic stroke were tested. Acute-phase levels of NT-pro-BNP and troponin T have been associated with mortality when measured in patients with an acute ischemic stroke. However, the value of pre-interventional levels of NT-pro-BNP and troponin T measured in the field as a prognosticator of in-hospital mortality after ischemic stroke is limited. …
