Objective: The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that severe placental insufficiency
and a rise in fetal systemic venous pressure are associated with fetal myocardial cell …

Cardiac troponin I is a specific cardiac muscle protein used as a marker of myocardial
damage. Information relevant to the normal fetal and neonatal values of troponin I is very …

METHODS This study was designed as a prospective observational study and was
performed at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University Hospital Galway …

Objective To investigate serum cardiac troponin I, a sensitive marker of cardiac myocyte
damage, in normal pregnancy and pregnancies complicated by hypertension with and …

Objective: Diagnosis of myocardial infarction in pregnant women on the basis of changes in
biochemical markers is complicated by the release of some of these markers from …

Purpose The purpose of this study was to examine the association of circulating
concentrations of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTn) in the various trimesters of …

Objective: We sought to determine cardiac troponin T concentrations in umbilical cord
plasma from normal and complicated pregnancies. Study Design: At the time of delivery …

Pre-eclampsia is a multisystem disorder that involves vascular endothelial dysfunction and
diffuse inflammatory response. The cardiac troponin (cTn-I) levels in pre-eclampsia are …

The measurement of myocardial damage by newer, highly specific markers of myocardial
damage is now possible, including cardiac structural proteins such as troponin T (TnT). In …

Background—Placental insufficiency may lead to fetal cardiovascular compromise. We
sought to determine whether ultrasonographic parameters of fetal cardiovascular function …
