Figure 2 The inverse association between age and serum N-terminal proB-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) level in pediatric sepsis patients up to age 18. Correlation between the serum NT-proBNP level and age in children with sepsis was confirmed by values of r=−0.325 and P<0.0001. The figure was generated using GraphPad software.
