NPPB and acute kidney injury: Event rates were significantly increased in patients with NT-proBNP > 450 pg/ml (70.7% vs. 32.4%, p < 0.001), which was due to the incidence of cardiac rehospitalisation (4.4% vs. 0%, p = 0.018), ADHF (20.1% vs. 4.0%, p < 0.001), AKI (39.8% vs. 8.3%, p < 0.001), and infection (46.3% vs. 24.4%, p < 0.01).
