Boston, MA - Cardiac troponin T levels forecast cardiovascular risk in patients with suspected acute coronary syndromes, regardless of their renal function, researchers write in the June 27, 2002 ...

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 ...

Cardiovascular compromise is increasingly recognized in preterm infants. Currently, echocardiography is the best tool to assess myocardial contractility and guide management. Elevated levels of ...

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 ...

Patients with chest pain who have MI and other potential acute causes of troponin elevation ruled out remain at a higher risk for death and cardiovascular outcomes if they have any troponin T detected ...

Background: Exercise induced cardiac fatigue has recently been observed after prolonged exercise. A moderate to high altitude has been suggested as a possible stimulus in the genesis of such cardiac ...

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 ...

(UPDATED) Patients presenting with chest pain who are excluded for myocardial infarction but have troponin levels that fall into the intermediate range are more likely to have coronary artery disease ...

Limited neural input results in muscle weakness in neuromuscular disease because of a reduction in the density of muscle innervation, the rate of neuromuscular junction activation or the efficiency of ...
