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 ...

Troponin refers to three different proteins that help regulate the contractions of the heart and skeletal muscles. Normal troponin levels range from 0 to 0.04 nanograms per milliliter (ng/ml). The ...

Troponins are proteins released into the bloodstream if there’s heart damage. Lab results below the 99th percentile mean normal function. Higher levels could mean a heart attack or another cardiac ...

This page lists all known medications that could potentially lead to 'Increase in Troponin' as a side effect. It's important to note that mild side effects are quite common with medications. The ...

After being anesthetized and undergoing major surgery, up to one in five patients have increased levels of the protein troponin in their blood. This can be a sign of heart damage. Researchers at ...

Using age-specific thresholds for troponin measurement would more accurately diagnose myocardial injury when assessing patients for suspected myocardial infarction (MI), a new study suggests. The ...

High-sensitivity cardiac troponin thresholds used to diagnose myocardial infarction (MI) and injury after cardiac surgery may need to be considerably higher than those currently recommended, a new ...

When used to evaluate suspected NSTEMI among patients who present to the emergency department (ED), high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) and troponin I (hs-cTnI) diverge for both diagnosis ...

Data regarding high-sensitivity troponin concentrations in patients presenting to the emergency department with symptoms suggestive of myocardial infarction may be useful in determining the ...

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 ...

Cardiac troponin provides diagnostic and prognostic information in acute coronary syndromes, but its role in acute decompensated heart failure is unclear. The purpose of our study was to describe the ...
