Predicted probability of one-year mortality with increasing BNP in subgroups by BMI category and heart failure type. The models are adjusted for age, gender, race, systolic blood pressure at admission, highest BUN, beta-blockers at discharge, statins at discharge, ACE inhibitors or angiotensin II receptor blockers at discharge, intravenous diuretics during hospitalization, history of pulmonary hypertension, pulmonary embolism, connective tissue disease and stroke. Predicted probabilities were calculated for each subgroup by setting continuous covariates to mean values, and the binary variables were set 0 if the weighted mean was < 0.5 and 1 if the weighted mean ≥ 0.5 including race as white and gender as female.
