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 ...

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 ...

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

Cardiac biomarkers by point-of-care testing - back to the future? [PDF]
The measurement of the cardiac troponins (cTn), cardiac troponin T (cTnT) and cardiac troponin I (cTnI) are integral to the management of patients with suspected acute coronary syndromes (ACS).

Prognostic importance of emerging cardiac, inflammatory, and renal biomarkers in chronic heart failure patients with reduced ejection fraction and anaemia: RED-HF study [PDF]
Aims: To test the prognostic value of emerging biomarkers in the Reduction of Events by Darbepoetin Alfa in Heart Failure (RED-HF) trial. Methods and results: Circulating cardiac [N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), and high ...

Investigations into the Sarcomeric Protein and Ca2+-Regulation Abnormalities Underlying Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy in Cats (Felix catus). [PDF]
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common single gene inherited cardiomyopathy. In cats (Felix catus) HCM is even more prevalent and affects 16% of the outbred population and up to 26% in pedigree breeds such as Maine Coon and Ragdoll ...

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.

Type 2 myocardial infarction: the chimaera of cardiology? [PDF]
The term type 2 myocardial infarction first appeared as part of the universal definition of myocardial infarction. It was introduced to cover a group of patients who had elevation of cardiac troponin but did not meet the traditional criteria for acute ...

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

Location of troponin I‐binding on troponin T sequence [PDF]
Interaction between troponin T and troponin I is considered as one of those necessary for the calI cium-regulatory mechanism in the thin filament of vertebrate striated muscles [ 1,2]. Studies using chymotryptic subfragments of troponin T showed that the affinity for troponin I is localized in the region of the C-terminal 101 residues, termed troponin ...
