Association of the Aspartate Aminotransferase to Alanine Aminotransferase Ratio with BNP Level and Cardiovascular Mortality in the General Population: The Yamagata Study 10-Year Follow-Up

Table 4

The area under the curves for cardiovascular deaths in general population.

	Area under the curve
BNP	0.73
eGFR	0.64
-GTP	0.55
AST	0.56
ALT	0.56
AST/ALT ratio	0.65

ALT, alanine transaminase; AST, aspartate transaminase; BNP, brain natriuretic peptide; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; -GTP, gamma glutamyl transpeptidase.
