Participants with NT-proBNP above the median were also at higher risk of clinical events compared with those having lower levels (hazard ratio, 1.21 [95% CI, 0.96–1.54] for stroke or systemic embolism [SE], 1.60 [95% CI, 1.32–1.95] for stroke/SE/cardiovascular death, and 1.91 [95% CI, 1.61–2.26] for all-cause death). Here, NPPB is linked to stroke disorder.
