Troponin elevation in coronary vs. non-coronary disease. (2011, background): “a distinct release kinetics following MI show a first peak resulting from the loosely bound troponin pool and a second prolonged elevation due to degradation of the contractile apparatus.(2) Patients”
Third universal definition of myocardial infarction. (2012, methodology): “Renal failure and other more non-ischemic chronic disease states, that can be associated with elevated cTn levels, are listed in Table 1 (10,11).”
Fourth Universal Definition of Myocardial Infarction (2018). (2018, neutral): “Myocardial injury is defined as being present when blood levels of cTn are increased above the 99th percentile upper reference limit (URL).(12,21,22,30) The injury may be acute, as evidenced by a newly detected dynamic rising and/or falling pattern of cTn values above the 99th percentile URL,”
2014 AHA/ACC guideline for the management of patients with non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndromes: a report of the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association Task Force on Practice Guidelines. (2014, background): “Additionally, evidence for a serial increase or decrease ≥20% is required if the initial value is elevated.(21,178) 2.”
Fourth Universal Definition of Myocardial Infarction (2018). (2018, neutral): “Cardiac troponin I (cTnI) and T (cTnT) are components of the contractile apparatus of myocardial cells and are expressed almost exclusively in the heart (21,22).”
Fourth universal definition of myocardial infarction (2018). (2019, neutral): “Myocardial injury is defined as being present when blood levels of cTn are increased above the 99th percentile upper reference limit (URL).(12,21,22,30) The injury may be acute, as evidenced by a newly detected dynamic rising and/or falling pattern of cTn values above the 99th percentile URL,”
