NPPB and coronary artery disorder: Higher concentrations of NT-proBNP were associated with greater risk of all-cause mortality (HR 1.43, 1.18–1.74, p<0.0001; I2 = 0; Q 0.001; DF 1; p = 0.97), CHD mortality (HR 1.58, 1.30–1.91, p<0.0001; I2 = 71; Q 6.93; DF 2; P = 0.031) and CVD mortality (HR 1.67, 1.33–2.10, p<0.0001; I2 = 88; Q 16.88; DF 2; p = 0.0002).
