Determinants of high sensitivity cardiac troponin T elevation in acute ischemic stroke
BACKGROUND A proportion of patients with acute ischemic stroke have elevated cardiac troponin levels and ECG changes suggestive of cardiac injury, but the etiology is unclear. The aims of this study were to assess the frequency of high sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) elevation, to identify determinants and ECG changes associated with hs-cTnT elevation, to identify patients with myocard...

background: serum troponin elevation, characteristic of ischemic myocardial injury, has been observed in some acute ischemic stroke (ais) patients. its cause and significance are still controversial. the purpose of this study is to find determinants of troponin elevation and its relationship with stroke severity and location. methods: between january 2013 and august 2013, 114 consecutive ais pa...
متن کاملPredictive value of high-sensitivity troponin I and D-dimer assays for adverse outcome in patients with acute pulmonary embolism
High-sensitivity troponin (hs-cTn) assays enable the troponin cutoff value to be lowered, resulting in an increase of sensitivity at the cost of specificity. In the present study, the risk of a short-term adverse outcome was assessed in patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE) using high-sensitivity troponin I (hs-cTnI). We used a cutoff value of 0.1 ng/ml in accordance with current guidelin...
متن کاملApplication and interpretation of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin assays in patients with acute ischemic stroke.
C erebrovascular and cardiovascular diseases are major causes of death and disability worldwide. Ischemic stroke is a frequent complication in cardiac disease and, vice versa, cardiac complications commonly cause early clinical worsening and death after stroke. 1 Adverse cardiac events account for the second largest group of deaths during the acute phase after stroke and are important determina...
