The enzymes troponin I and troponin T are normal proteins that are important in the contractile apparatus of the cardiac myocyte. The proteins are released into the circulation between 3 and 4 ...
Cardiac troponins are a group of markers used to predict the risk of ... considering previous findings regarding cardiac troponin T, another biomarker of cardiac injury. Unlike troponin I ...
The ability to diagnose MI was better with troponin I, but T better predicted mortality. Both tests have strengths, ...
The rate of cardiac injury as determined by cTnI in this study was 19%. In trying to identify any factors that may contribute to an overestimation of cardiac injury, we consider the use of cTnI ...
Switching from a conventional to a high-sensitivity cardiac troponin assay was linked to lower mortality at 30 days and 1 year in patients with suspected acute coronary disease.
Another study compared high-intensity interval exercise (HIIE) with moderate-intensity continuous exercise (MICE) and found no significant difference in the elevation of cardiac troponin T between ...
New data from US centers suggest some overtesting in patients without chest pain, and undertesting in those who do.
