Impact of statin use on exercise-induced cardiac troponin elevations.

Marathon running commonly causes a transient elevation of creatine kinase and cardiac troponin I (cTnI). The use of statins before marathon running exacerbates the release of creatine kinase from skeletal muscle, but the effect of statin use on exercise-induced cTnI release is unknown. We therefore measured cTnI concentrations in statin-using (n = 30) and nonstatin-using (n = 41) runners who pa...

Baseline troponin level: key to understanding the importance of post-PCI troponin elevations.

AIMS The adverse prognostic significance of biomarker elevations after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is well established. However, often baseline troponin values are not included in the analysis or sensitive criteria are not employed. Accordingly, we assessed the timing and magnitude of post-PCI troponin T (cTnT) levels and their relationships to outcomes in patients with and without...

Cardiac troponin elevations in patients without acute coronary syndrome.

Cardiac troponin T and troponin I are the most specific and sensitive laboratory markers of myocardial cell injury and therefore have replaced creatine kinase MB as the gold standard.1,2 Accordingly, the new definition of acute myocardial infarctions was based on elevations of cardiac troponins in blood in the setting of ischemia.2 The compelling clinical value of troponins resides in its super...

Troponin elevations after electroconvulsive therapy: the need for caution.

BACKGROUND Electroconvulsive therapy is used to treat patients with severe or resistant depression. Troponin elevations are associated with an adverse prognosis, and it is well known that central nervous system insults can cause biochemical evidence of cardiac injury. No study previously has studied this with electroconvulsive therapy. METHODS Patients scheduled for electroconvulsive therapy ...

Interpreting troponin elevations: do we need multiple diagnoses?

The expanded ability to detect myocardial injury using very sensitive and specific biomarker assays has been a major factor in the evolution of the definition of acute myocardial infarction (MI). This is clearly evident in the ‘Universal Definition of Myocardial Infarction’ recently developed by a joint task force of experts on behalf of the ESC, ACCF, AHA, and WHF (European Society of Cardiolo...
