Elevated peak donor troponin levels are associated with an increased risk for 1-year graft loss in pediatric heart transplant recipients.

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 ...

STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN — Cardiac troponin T (cTnT) can predict mortality and clinical events even in patients without overt heart disease, suggests a large cohort study that expands on research suggesting ...

WASHINGTON, DC — The new high-sensitive troponin T (hsTnT) assay can predict worse postoperative outcomes in the absence of acute coronary syndrome, Washington University researchers reported at ...

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 ...

A simple £5 blood test for the protein troponin could predict a person's risk of heart attacks and strokes with greater accuracy than ever before, research suggests. Troponin is found in heart muscle ...

A prospective cohort study of 13,862 patients showed that among those who underwent isolated coronary-artery bypass grafting or aortic-valve replacement or repair, the threshold high-sensitivity ...
