Background: Recent studies have shown that cardiac troponin T (cTnT) levels predict
cardiovascular mortality in hemodialysis patients. The aim of this study is to analyze the …

Background. Serum concentrations of the cardiac troponins (cTn) T and I, specific markers of
myocardial injury, are frequently elevated in haemodialysis patients. The clinical relevance …

Cardiac troponin T (cTnT) and I (cTnI) levels are considered as important diagnostic tools in
acute coronary events. They could be of predictive value in hemodialysis (HD) patients. The …

Background: Increased plasma troponin T (cTnT), but not troponin I (cTnI), is frequently
observed in end-stage renal failure patients. Although generally considered spurious, we …

Serum troponin T levels using a highly sensitive assay (hsTnT) in patients with chronic
kidney disease (CKD) not on dialysis have not been examined. The aim of this prospective …

Background. Patients undergoing chronic haemodialysis frequently have elevated serum
cardiac troponin T (cTnT) levels resulting in difficulty in diagnosing acute coronary …

Background A single detectable cardiac troponin predicts mortality in patients treated with
dialysis. There are limited data on changes in troponin concentration over time and the …

Background: It has been recently suggested that cardiac troponin T (cTnT) may be more
sensitive than troponin I (cTnI) for subclinical myocardial cell injury in patients on chronic …

Background. Cardiovascular mortality in end-stage renal failure patients is high and early
risk stratification in these patients may aid clinical management improving outcomes …

Background. Elevated serum cardiac troponin T (cTnT) levels are frequently observed in
chronic dialysis patients and have been shown to be associated with increased morbidity …
