NPPB and Hypertension: For patients with hypertension, obese individuals had higher NT-proBNP levels (7200 ± 2500 pg/mL vs. 4600 ± 2100 pg/mL, p < 0.001), Troponin I (115 ± 320 ng/mL vs. 85 ± 290 ng/mL, p = 0.01), CRP (58 ± 15 mg/L vs. 48 ± 12 mg/L, p = 0.02), CK-MB (26 ± 12 ng/mL vs. 23 ± 10 ng/mL, p = 0.04), and D-dimer (3.6 ± 1.4 ng/mL vs. 2.8 ± 1.2 ng/mL, p = 0.03).
