However, it is not well understood how controlling blood pressure affects levels of troponin I and whether the change in troponin I levels predicted the future risk of cardiovascular disease.

The ability to diagnose MI was better with troponin I, but T better predicted mortality. Both tests have strengths, ...

A research team at UCLA has developed a deep learning-powered chemiluminescence vertical flow assay (CL-VFA) that brings ...

The rate of cardiac injury as determined by cTnI in this study was 19%. In trying to identify any factors that may contribute to an overestimation of cardiac injury, we consider the use of cTnI ...

A bracelet-like device that measures levels of troponin-I in the blood could provide a more efficient way of detecting a heart attack, according to US researchers. The wearable developed by RCE ...

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 ...

New data from US centers suggest some overtesting in patients without chest pain, and undertesting in those who do.

The following is a summary of “Impact of impaired renal function on kinetics of high-sensitive cardiac troponin following ...

Troponin is shown in red (subunits not distinguished). Upon binding calcium, troponin moves tropomyosin away from the myosin-binding sites on actin (bottom), effectively unblocking it. Modified ...

Cardiac enzymes ― also known as cardiac biomarkers ― include myoglobin, troponin and creatine kinase. Historically, lactate dehydrogenase, or LDH, was also used but is non-specific.
