Cardiac Troponin T Levels for Risk Stratification in Acute Myocardial Ischemia

TL;DR: The usefulness of base-line levels of cardiac troponin T and CK-MB and the electrocardiographic category assigned at admission and the presence of confounding factors that impair the detection of ischemia were assessed to assess the usefulness of outcome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 and Left Ventricular Hypertrophy in Chronic Kidney Disease

TL;DR: FGF-23 is independently associated withleft ventricular mass index and left ventricular hypertrophy in patients with CKD, and whether increased FGF- 23 is a marker or a potential mechanism of myocardial hyperTrophy in CKD requires further study.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association of serial measures of cardiac troponin T using a sensitive assay with incident heart failure and cardiovascular mortality in older adults

TL;DR: In this article, a longitudinal nationwide cohort study (Cardiovascular health study) was conducted to determine if cardiac troponin T (cTnT) measured by a highly sensitive assay would be detectable in the majority of community-dwelling older adults, and if serial measures were associated with risk of new-onset heart failure and cardiovascular death.
