Abstract Background N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) concentrations are lower in patients with obesity. The interaction between body mass index (BMI) and NT-proBNP with respect to heart failure (HF) risk remains incompletely defined. pg/mL lower NT-proBNP per 1 kg/m 2 higher BMI; p<0.001). vs. 0.6%, 1.3%

Previous studies have associated obesity with negative changes in the right ventricle using imaging techniques. However, the connection between obesity and more direct measures of right ventricle function, particularly those reflecting hemodynamic consequences, have been unclear.

Can you please explain the concept of an obesity paradox? Salvatore Carbone, PhD: First, I’d like to point out that obesity is a major risk factor for cardiometabolic disease. 2, 3] This association is more pronounced for those with class I obesity, which is a body mass index (BMI) between 30-35 kg/m2.

When it comes to cardiovascular disease, two of the biggest risk factors we must consider are: ApoB concentration - A measure of the number of circulating lipid particles. Not all circulating ApoB particles will transition across the artery wall, but some will. Trends in the number of obese and severely obese people by region.
