Influence of diabetes on admission and discharge BNP levels: linear regression analysis.
| Admission BNP | Discharge BNP | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| β coefficient (95% CI) | p value | β coefficient (95% CI) | p value | |
| Diabetes mellitus | −116.5 (−347.0; 114.0) | 0.32 | −103.2 (−302.2; 95.8) | 0.31 |
Adjusted for body mass index, admission creatinine, and atrial fibrillation. BNP: B-type natriuretic peptide.
