GFR-specific cut-offs can refine the prognostic value of circulating cardiac biomarkers in advanced chronic kidney disease

ConclusionsAmong asymptomatic patients with advanced CKD, optimal cut-offs for hs-cTnT and NT-proBNP differed by GFR level and out-performed standard cut-offs for discrimination of cardiovascular risk.
