In the final multiple logistic regression model for the likelihood of detecting new AF, the NT-proBNP logarithmic mean and diastolic blood pressure were significantly associated with AF detection with an odds ratio and 95% CI of 2.29 (1.11 to 4.69) for log NT-proBNP and 1.08 (1.02 to 1.15) for diastolic blood pressure. The gene discussed is NPPB; the disease is atrial fibrillation.
