Influence of case definition on incidence and outcome of acute coronary syndromes [PDF]

, 2016
© 2016, BMJ Publishing Group. All rights reserved. Objective: Acute coronary syndromes (ACS) are common, but their incidence and outcome might depend greatly on how data are collected.

Troponin and outcomes

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2004
We read with interest the report of Kontos et al. ([1][1]), which showed that any detectable troponin I in the serum of patients admitted with chest pain was associated with worse outcomes. We recently reported the results of a similar study involving troponin T levels ([2][2]), and we found ...

High‐Sensitivity Cardiac Troponin I and T Response Following Strenuous Activity is Attenuated by Smokeless Tobacco: NEEDED (North Sea Race Endurance Exercise Study) 2014

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2020
Background Use of snus, a smokeless tobacco product, is increasing in Scandinavia. Strenuous physical activity is associated with an acute increase in high‐sensitivity cardiac troponin (swhs‐cTn) concentrations.

Are troponins confusing? [PDF]

Heart, 2003
The cardiospecificity and sensitivity of cardiac troponin measurement has proved to be a two edged sword for the laboratory and the clinician The ability to measure the cardiac specific markers, cardiac troponin T (cTnT) and cardiac troponin I (cTnI) (the cardiac troponins), has produced a paradigm shift in the assessment of patients with suspected ...

Financial impact of a targeted reduction in cardiac enzyme testing at a community hospital [PDF]

Journal of Community Hospital Internal Medicine Perspectives, 2016
Objectives: Nearly one-third of healthcare costs are potentially avoidable and would not compromise medical care if eliminated. Therefore, we sought to evaluate the financial impact of reduction in use of creatinine kinase (CK)-MB and myoglobin tests ...

Prognostic Value of Elevated Cardiac Troponin I After Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

Frontiers in Neurology, 2021
Object: Patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) have an increased incidence of cardiac events and short-term unfavorable neurological outcomes during the acute phase of bleeding.

ST2 and Multimarker Testing in Acute Decompensated Heart Failure [PDF]

, 2015
Most data on heart failure biomarkers have been derived from patient cohorts with chronic disease. However, risk prediction in patients admitted with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) remains a challenge.

High-sensitivity cardiac troponin T and copeptin assays to improve diagnostic accuracy of exercise stress test in patients with suspected coronary artery disease [PDF]

, 2014
Background: The average diagnostic sensitivity of exercise stress tests (ESTs) is lower than that of other non-invasive cardiac stress tests. The aim of the study was to examine whether high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) or copeptin ...

Development of Optical Biosensor Technologies for Cardiac Troponin Recognition [PDF]

, 2015
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is the leading cause of death among cardiovascular diseases. Among the numerous attempts to develop coronary marker concepts into clinical strategies, cardiac troponin is known as a specific marker for coronary events ...
