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...
متن کاملImpact 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...
متن کاملExercise-induced cardiac troponin elevation: evidence, mechanisms, and implications.
Regular physical exercise is recommended for the primary prevention of cardiovascular disease. Although the high prevalence of physical inactivity remains a formidable public health issue, participation in exercise programs and recreational sporting events, such as marathons and triathlons, is on the rise. Although regular exercise training reduces cardiovascular disease risk, recent studies ha...
متن کاملAlzheimer ’s Disease: Possible Mechanisms Behind Neurohormesis Induced by Exposure to Low Doses of Ionizing Radiation
In 2016, scientists reported that human exposure to low doses of ionizing radiation (CT scans of the brain) might relieve symptoms of both Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson disease (PD). The findings were unbelievable for those who were not familiar with neurohormesis. X-ray stimulation of the patient’s adaptive protection systems against neurodegenerative diseases was the mechanism pr...
متن کاملTroponin 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 ...
