Background The prognostic value of cardiac troponin elevation in atrial fibrillation (AF) is
unclear. Objective To investigate the association of cardiac troponin elevation with adverse …

Cardiac arrhythmias are associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. Recent
advances in the pathophysiological understanding of cardiac arrhythmia indicate that …

There are limited data on the prognostic role of biomarkers in anticoagulated patients with
atrial fibrillation (AF). We evaluated the prognostic value of high sensitivity TnT (hsTnT) and …

Background We investigated whether circulating concentrations of soluble ST2, growth
differentiation factor–15 (GDF-15), and high-sensitivity troponin I (hsTnI) are associated with …

Introduction Structural changes in the heart are known risk factors for atrial fibrillation (AF).
An association between high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT), a marker of myocardial …

Background Cardiac troponin is emerging as risk indicator in community-dwelling
populations. In this study, we investigated the associations of cardiac troponin T (cTnT) to …

Introduction: Early recognition and risk stratification of cardiovascular events are necessary
in patients after ischemic stroke. Recent evidence suggests that elevated high-sensitive …

Background. Atrial fibrillation is known very frequent cause of ischemic stroke. Undetected
paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) is thus often considered a possible cause of cryptogenic …

BACKGROUND: Currently, there are no reliable methods for predicting and preventing atrial
fibrillation (AF) in its early stages. This study aimed to identify plasma proteins associated …

Objective: To explore the association between the levels of troponin (Tn) and incident atrial
fibrillation (AF) occurrence, AF recurrence after radiofrequency ablation (RFA), and the risk …
