The Zlog-transformed NTproBNPZlog (at T1 AUC 0.772; p = 0.019; at T2 AUC 0.874, p = 0.002), and endothelin-1 (ET1, at T1 AUC 0.789, p = 0.013) were identified as an early predictive biomarker for BPD/death in the univariate analysis. The gene discussed is EDN1; the disease is bronchopulmonary dysplasia.
