Cardiac biomarkers in premature calves with respiratory distress syndrome [PDF]
The aim of this study was to determine the clinical relevance of cardiac biomarkers [troponin I and T, creatine kinase-MB fraction (CK-MB) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)] in premature calves with respiratory distress syndrome.

BackgroundTroponin‐T elevation is seen commonly in sepsis and septic shock patients admitted to the intensive care unit. We sought to evaluate the role of admission and serial troponin‐T testing in the prognostication of these patients.

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

Identifying Patients Suitable for Discharge After a Single-Presentation High-Sensitivity Troponin Result: A Comparison of Five Established Risk Scores and Two High-Sensitivity Assays. [PDF]
STUDY OBJECTIVE: We compare the ability of 5 established risk scores to identify patients with suspected acute coronary syndromes who are suitable for discharge after a modified single-presentation high-sensitivity troponin result.

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 ...

Myocardial injury in noncardiac surgery [PDF]
Myocardial injury is defined as an elevation of cardiac troponin (cTn) levels with or without associated ischemic symptoms. Robust evidence suggests that myocardial injury increases postoperative mortality after noncardiac surgery.

To Assess Relationship of Lipoprotein (a) with Severity of Coronary Artery Disease in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction: A Hospital based Cross-sectional Study [PDF]
Introduction: Elevated plasma concentrations of lipoprotein {Lp(a)} have been consistently shown to be a risk factor for the development of a spectrum of thrombotic and atherosclerotic disorders including Coronary Artery Disease (CAD). Aim: To assess

The Solution Structure of a Cardiac Troponin C−Troponin I−Troponin T Complex Shows a Somewhat Compact Troponin C Interacting with an Extended Troponin I−Troponin T Component [PDF]
We have investigated the structure of the cTnC-cTnI-cTnT(198-298) calcium-saturated, ternary cardiac troponin complex by small-angle scattering with contrast variation. Shape restoration was also applied to the scattering information resulting from the deuterated cTnC subunit, the unlabeled cTnI-cTnT(198-298) subunits, and the entire complex.
