From: High Serum Uric Acid is Highly Associated with a Reduced Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction Rather than Increased Plasma B-type Natriuretic Peptide in Patients with Cardiovascular Diseases

Figure 4

Single regression analysis between UA and LVEF and between UA and Log BNP among obese, adolescent males, and among lean, aged females These upper and lower panels demonstrate a single regression analysis between UA and LVEF, and UA and Log BNP among each group, divided into obese, adolescent males (upper panels: age <67 years and BMI ≥ 24.2 kg/m2) and lean, aged females (lower panels: age ≥67 years and BMI < 24.2 kg/m2). Scatter plots and a simple regression line (orange straight line) with the regression equation demonstrate the correlation between the two values among UA, plasma BNP, and LVEF. BNP, B-type natriuretic peptide; LVEF, left ventricular ejection fraction; UA, uric acid.
