High-Sensitivity Cardiac Troponin T Variation After Percutaneous Atrial Septal Defect Closure [PDF]

, 2023
Troponin levels are used to rule in or rule out myocardial injury, with the T and I subunits being the biomarkers of choice. The use of high-sensitivity kits is recommended in clinical practice.1 There are no reference values after percutaneous occlusion

Is high sensitivity troponin, taken regardless of a clinical indication, associated with 1 year mortality in critical care patients?

, 2023
The aim of this study was to assess whether high sensitivity troponin (hs-cTnI) is associated with 1 year mortality in critical care (CC). One year mortality data were obtained from NHS Digital for a consecutive cohort of patients admitted to general CC ...

Clinical and Biological Features of Response in Resistant Neuroblastoma to 131I‐Metaiodobenzylguanidine Radiotherapy in the Anti‐GD2 Immunotherapy Era

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background 131I‐metaiodobenzylguanidine (131I‐MIBG) radiotherapy is a key treatment for relapsed and refractory (R/R) neuroblastoma (NB). Patients with R/R disease treated in the modern era are increasingly exposed to anti‐GD2 immunotherapy, which exerts selective pressure and may modify both tumor cell state and microenvironment.
