Fig 1 A, Preoperative N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels in tertiles and the relation with site of surgery and perioperative myocardial damage. B, Preoperative NT-proBNP levels in tertiles and the relation with clinical cardiac risk and perioperative myocardial damage. NT-proBNP tertiles in pg/mL: Lowest, 5-119; middle, ; highest, >383.
