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 ...

Lead author P.J. Devereaux, MD (Population Health Research Institute, Hamilton, Canada), told TCTMD that the guidelines regarding troponin thresholds after surgery were influenced by use of creatine ...

Intense light therapy after surgery can increase a critical protein that protects heart tissue while lowering levels of troponin, a protein indicating heart damage that's linked to higher mortality in ...

Even when cardiac troponin levels detected by high-sensitivity assays are within the normal range, elevations are associated with incident cardiovascular events in people without overt disease, a meta ...

Adding glucose level and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) to high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) level testing in the emergency department (ED) is more sensitive and specific for ...

SILVER SPRING, MD — The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) warns that biotin, or vitamin B 7, can interfere with the results of laboratory testing, including troponin testing for diagnosis of MI [1 ...

Cardiac troponin T is a protein biomarker detectable with a blood test, and it is the preferred biomarker for determining cardiovascular risk. In a new study published in JAMA Cardiology, researchers ...

Exercising is healthy, but it also puts strain on the heart. During physical exertion, the protein troponin is released—a biomarker indicative of cardiac damage. New research from Radboudumc involving ...
