(A) Relationship between 6-month left ventricular (LV) dilatation ratio [LV remodeling (%)] and 3-month plasma B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) decrease ratio [RBNP13 (%)] in patients with AMI (P < 0.001, R2 = 0.219, decrease in RBNP13 = 57.64-1.01 x LV remodeling). The intersection of LV dilatation ratio at 20% defines a cut-point for LV remodeling. (B) Receiver operating characteristics curve to predict development of half-year LV remodeling by RBNP13 (Cut-off value of RBNP13 = 53.2%, AUC = 0.764, P < 0.001). AUC: area under the curve.
