Rodríguez-Castro E. et al. [145] reported that a cut-off point of 800 pg/mL of NT-proBNP predicted stroke with a sensitivity of 64% and a specificity of 79% (p < 0.001), and was independently associated with a higher risk of stroke after a TIA (OR: 6.65, p < 0.001). Here, NPPB is linked to transient ischemic attack.
