In patients with PAC-GTN >2.55 ml/mmHg, there were the following correlations of PAC-GTN: vs. NT-pro BNP: r = −0.10; vs. LVEF: r = 0.08; vs. TAPSE: r = 0.17 (all p-values > 0.05); and in patients with PAC-GTN ≤ 2.55 ml/mmHg: vs. NT-pro BNP: r = −0.16; vs. LVEF: r = −0.09; vs. TAPSE: r = 0.22; all p-values > 0.05. This evidence concerns the gene NPPB and gonorrhea.
