N-terminal natriuretic propeptide type-b (NT-proBNP) and left ventricular ejection fraction in acute phase of st-segment elevation myocardial infarction and 1-year later

<p><strong>Background:</strong> N-terminal natriuretic propeptide type-B (NT-proBNP) is a newer biochemical marker in acute coronary syndrome. NT-proBNP concentration of acute and chronic phase of STsegment elevation myocardial infarction is a predictor of ventricular function and...
