N-Terminal pro C-Type Natriuretic Peptide (NTproCNP) and myocardial function in ageing.

Ageing-related alterations in cardiovascular structure and function are commonly associated with chronic inflammation. A potential blood-based biomarker indicative of a chronic inflammatory state is N-Terminal Pro C-Type Natriuretic Peptide (NTproCNP). We aim to investigate associations between NTpr...
