Plasma NT-proBNP values in A31P cat colony. (A) Highest single measurement of plasma NT-proBNP concentration by genotype. (B) Highest measured plasma NT-proBNP concentration in HCM-unaffected and -affected cats. Dotted line represents 100 pM, the clinically accepted cut off value for high NT-proBNP concentration. ** P < 0.008, *** P < 0.0001. NTproBNP: N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide; HCM: hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
