Receiver operating characteristic curve of adiponectin and NT-proBNP. There’s a trend that adiponectin exhibited a better diagnostic efficiency as compared to NT-proBNP in patients with right ventricular dysfunction (AUC = 0.84, 95%CI 0.67–1.00; AUC = 0.74, 95%CI 0.51–0.97, respectively, p = 0.23).
