Background Raised cardiac troponin-I is a common finding in patients hospitalised with acute viral infections, including but ...
Adding high-sensitivity cardiac troponin assays on top of conventional risk-prediction methods can potentially improve primary prevention efforts, according to a new meta-analysis. While best known ...
Exercising is healthy, but it also puts strain on the heart. During physical exertion, the protein troponin is released—a biomarker indicative of cardiac damage. New research from Radboudumc involving ...
Switching from a conventional to a high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I assay in emergency departments is associated with a reduction in both mortality at 1 year and new admissions for myocardial ...
September 2, 2011 (Paris, France) — Elderly persons who lead more physically active lives are less likely to show a clinically significant rise in levels of a heart-cell injury biomarker, ...
Baseline troponin levels were also higher in the exercise-induced ischemia group: 5.4 pg/mL compared to 3.9. When doctors tested for troponin 45 and 90 minutes after the mental stress test, they ...
Elevations in cardiac troponin (cTn) after long bouts of aerobic exercise are not associated with subclinical coronary artery disease in middle-aged athletes, a new study shows. The release of cTn ...
