An elevated troponin alone cannot establish a diagnosis of myocardial infarction (MI), yet the optimal methods for diagnosing MI in the intensive care unit (ICU) are not established. The study objective was to estimate the frequency of MI using troponin T measurements, 12-lead electrocardiograms ...
ELEVATED CARDIAC TROPONIN-I PREDICTS IN HOSPITAL MORTALITY AND INTENSIVE CARE UNIT ADMISSION IN PULMONARY EMBOLISMairway responsivenessallergen challengeasthmaeosinophilsThe allergen challenge has evolved, in less than 150 years, from a crude tool used to document the etiology of allergen-induced disease ...
The level of troponin in the blood increases within a few hours of an acute myocardial infarction (MI) and remains elevated for up to 2 weeks. However, it’s important to note that troponin levels can also rise in conditions such as inflammation, sepsis, heart failure, and respiratory ...
Anders B, Alonso A, Artemis D, Schafer A, Ebert A, Kablau M, et al. What does elevated high-sensitive troponin I in stroke patients mean: concomitant acute myocardial infarction or a marker for high-risk patients? Cerebrovasc Dis. 2013;36(3):211–7. Kerr G, Ray G, Wu O, Stott DJ...
Moreover, studies of troponin elevations neither consistently show associations with adverse cardiovascular outcomes at any time point nor provide insight into the effect of treatment on outcomes in patients with an elevated troponin level. Although it is known that elevations in troponin are more ...
The markers of severe disease are non-specific and include elevated d-dimer, CRP, LDH, troponin, ferritin, and CPK and lymphopenia. Abnormalities in these parameters can be seen in leukemic patients in different contexts, making interpretation of these values a challenge. Temporal trends should be...

segment elevation) and TIMI (age > 65 years, cardiovascular risk factors, coronary stenosis > 50%, two episodes of Angina in < 24 h, taking acetylsalicylic acid in the last 7 days, elevated creatine kinase isoenzyme MB (CK-MB) or troponin) scales were collected (Table 1). ...
Infant mice sustained a markedly higher mortality rate than the adult mice when injected with 30 or 35 mg/kg body weight of LPS, accompanied by an elevated level of serum TNF-α (Additional file 3: Figure S3I, J and Additional file 2: Figure S2D). Notably, infant peritoneal macrophages...
You are called to see her on day three for the sudden-onset substernal chest pain. She has minimal response to two doses of sublingual nitroglycerin. Initial 12-lead EKG demonstrates inferior lead ST elevation. Stat labs are drawn and reveal elevated troponins at 45 ng/mL. Complete blood ...
