Renal Elimination of Troponin T and Troponin I [PDF]
Cardiovascular complications represent the predominant cause of death in patients in the terminal stage of renal failure. Increased concentrations of cardiac troponin T (cTnT) may be a valuable predictor of cardiac risk (1)(2). However, cardiac troponin I (cTnI), clinical symptoms, and electrocardiogram (ECG) indications may be absent in patients with ...

The Prognostic Significance of Troponin I and Troponin T [PDF]
Abstract. Objectives: To determine and compare the prognostic abilities of early, single‐sample measurements of cardiac troponin I (cTn‐I), cardiac troponin T (cTn‐T), creatine kinase‐MB (CK‐MB) among ED patients with possible myocardial ischemia. Methods: Prospective collection of clinical and serologic data using an identity‐unlinked technique from

Troponin T and I can be found within the myocardial filaments. Measuring these cardiac troponin levels in full-term newborns and premature infants has not become a common practice in the neonatal intensive care unit and newborn nurseries. Research studies are discovering that an elevation in troponin T and I levels can be directly correlated with the ...

Cardiac biomarkers and left ventricular systolic function in acute myocardial infarction with ST- segment elevation in diabetes mellitus type 2 patients [PDF]
Aim To determine a status of systolic function in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) type 2 with ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI), to determine values of cardiac biomarkers in patients with DM type 2 with STEMI and correlate the

The trouble with troponin [PDF]
Diagnostic tests are double-edged swords. They typically have good sensitivity when illness is likely but can contribute to misdiagnosis when disease prevalence is low.

Measurement of Calcium Dissociation Rates from Troponin C in Rigor Skeletal Myofibrils
Ca2+ dissociation from the regulatory domain of troponin C may influence the rate of striated muscle relaxation. However, Ca2+ dissociation from troponin C has not been measured within the geometric and stoichiometric constraints of the muscle fiber ...

In recent years the use of troponin testing to monitor myocardial damage has become more pervasive and prominent, replacing the old style CK-MB measurement. Troponin elevation is a marker of cardiac injury and high risk, it is also raised in a minority of acute coronary syndrome patients. However, it is important for clinicians to realise that a single
