Impact of copeptin on diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome
Background: Acute coronary syndrome remains the principal cause of death, so the early diagnosis is of great importance. Cardiac troponin is the preferred biomarker for acute myocardial infarction.

ABSTRACT Background Distal transradial access (dTRA) has gained attention for its lower risk of vascular complications compared to conventional transradial access (TRA). However, its feasibility and safety in patients with out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) undergoing emergency percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remain uncertain.

Cardiac troponins in intensive care. [PDF]
The cardiac troponins are integral components of the myofibrillary apparatus and they regulate muscle contraction. The measurement of cardiac troponins has replaced other biomarkers for the specific detection of myocardial necrosis and for the diagnosis of myocardial infarction.

Role of Neuroimaging Before Coronary Angiography in Patients With Out‐of‐Hospital Cardiac Arrest
ABSTRACT Background Patients presenting following out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest (OOHCA) often require emergency coronary angiography. Presentations can be associated with syncope or head‐trauma. Aims We investigated the impact and utility of pre‐coronary angiography CT‐Brain (CT‐B) in patients following OOHCA on clinical outcomes.

Abstract Aims This study aimed to evaluate the change of the main electrocardiographic (ECG) characteristics and their prognostic role across the main subtypes of cardiac amyloidosis [light‐chain amyloidosis (AL) and hereditary (ATTRv) and wild‐type transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTRwt)].

Abstract Wild‐type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt‐CM) is a progressive and infiltrative cardiac disorder that may cause fatal consequences if left untreated. The estimated survival time from diagnosis is approximately 3–6 years. Because of the non‐specificity of initial symptom manifestation and insufficient awareness among treating ...

Abstract Aims The prognostic role of high‐sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs‐cTnT) as a biomarker in patients with cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) has yet to be fully determined, especially when compared with B‐type natriuretic peptide (BNP). Methods and Results In this post‐hoc analysis of the ILLUMINATE‐CS (ILLUstration of the Management and prognosIs of ...

Cardiac enzymes versus cardiac MRI for early diagnosis of myocarditis in children
Background. Diagnosis of myocarditis in children is still difficult because of nonspecific clinical presentation and lack of any specific tool. Cardiac troponins are not disease-specific and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) offers detailed ...
