Des chercheurs danois affirment qu'ils peuvent repérer, grâce à la concentration dans le sang d'une protéine liée au stress, les individus aux artères bloquées qui courent le plus grand risque de subir une crise cardiaque. La peptide B-natriurétique (BNP) devient ainsi le troisième indicateur de troubles cardio-vasculaires après les taux de cholestérol et de protéine C réactive. La protéine BNP est présente dans le sang au moment où le cœur est soumis au stress. 3, record 1, French, - peptide%20B%2Dnatriur%C3%A9tique
