with a low risk of mortality&#44; the levels of the N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide &#40;NT-proBNP&#41; obtained in the first 72<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>h after admission are a powerful predictor of mortality&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0030"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span></a> In this regard&#44; we would like to make a series of comments&#46;</p><p id="par0010" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">First&#44; it should be noted that NT-proBNP measurement was performed during the first 72<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>h&#46; In this regard&#44; we must bear in mind that there are numerous factors related to resuscitation and therapeutic intervention that occurred during the first days of care that can condition in-hospital mortality&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0035"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a> For all these reasons&#44; an evaluation of prognostic biomarkers seems more appropriate during the first patient care interval&#44; to help in making decisions about risk stratification&#44; treatment and final patient destination&#46; Its greatest utility&#44; from that first intervention&#44; has to do with monitoring the therapeutic response&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0040"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a></p><p id="par0015" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Secondly&#44; it is known that the elevation of NT-proBNP is higher in patients with reduced systolic function compared to those with preserved function&#44;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0045"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span></a> so it would have been interesting to know their existence or lack of it in the studied patients&#44; as well as to have considered it in the analysis&#44; since it could behave as a confounding factor&#46; This fact is even more important when the present study showed that heart failure was a predictor of biomarker elevation&#46;</p><p id="par0020" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Thirdly&#44; it should be assessed whether the fact that 69&#37; of the infectious processes were respiratory could influence the results obtained&#44; and whether the predictive capacity of NT-pro-BNP is maintained in all infection models&#46; In addition&#44; there are other conditions that can modify NT-proBNP&#44; such as age&#44; sex&#44; pulmonary hypertension or kidney failure&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0045"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span></a> Although the first 2 were included as independent variables&#44; it does not appear from the wording of the article that the presence of renal insufficiency or pulmonary hypertension was included&#44; and therefore this could have conditioned the findings described in the article&#46;</p><p id="par0025" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Finally&#44; with regard to special populations&#44; and in order to know the behavior of these biomarkers in elderly patients&#44; we would like to provide the results of an analysis on the prospective cohort of the Infections Group of the Spanish Society of Emergency Medicine &#40;INFURG-SEMES&#41;
