Performance of NPs for the diagnosis of AHF was tested and compared using C-statistics in the entire cohort and in conditions previously described to confound interpretation of NPs such as older age, renal failure, obesity, atrial fibrillation or paced rhythm, and in the NT-proBNP grey zone. AHF was diagnosed in 139 patients. In the entire cohort, the diagnostic performance of NT-proBNP was comparable with that of MR-proANP. Receiver operating characteristic analysis demonstrated that optimal diagnostic cut-offs were higher in the presence of older age, kidney failure or rhythm disorder. However, there were no statistically relevant differences between the receiver operating characteristic curves analysed in the total population and those studied in the pre-specified subsets severe kidney failure, advanced age, obesity, atrial fibrillation and paced rhythm, and grey zone NT-proBNP values. Moreover, the diagnostic performance of NT-proBNP was comparable with that of MR-proANP in the subsets.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n
