EuroSCORE 2-10: NT-proBNP was associatedwith renal failure (P = 0.026), longer ICU stay(P = 0.002), and cerebrovascular events(P = 0.027); NT-proBNP was not associated withmortality (P = 0.080), nor with new atrialfibrillation (P = 0.770). This evidence concerns the gene NPPB and Renal insufficiency.
