“…Cardiac troponin T and I (cTnT and cTnI) are accepted indicators of myocyte necrosis and are considered sensitive markers of acute myocardial injury (MI) and infarction (AMI) (75). Serum cTnT and cTnI are elevated after irreversible heart muscle damage and levels peak during the subsequent days (1,60). The N-terminal fragment of the prohormone brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is a marker accepted to reflect myocardial stretch (74), which is currently used to detect heart failure and asymptomatic left ventricular dysfunction (14,53) with the magnitude and duration of release dependent on the severity of stretch and stress (3).…”

“…These assays can detect the 99 th percentile with a CV < 10% and measure cTn concentrations in at least a 50% of a healthy population at rest (59). Although the higher sensitivity of these assays enables better rates of true positive detection (40), a decline in specificity has been reported such that cTn appearance might be related to etiologies other than AMI (1,16,40). This can include physical exercise as a known non-pathological cause of cTn increase (1).…”

“…They can also identify cTn levels in at least 50% of healthy individuals when they are at rest. However, this higher sensitivity can sometimes lead to falsepositive results, meaning that the tests may indicate a problem, such as an acute myocardial infarction (AMI), when the elevated level was caused by something else, such as physical exercise (16)(17)(18). The fourth definition, or clinical criterion, for myocardial infarction (MI) "denotes the presence of acute myocardial injury detected by abnormal cardiac biomarkers in the setting of evidence of acute myocardial ischaemia" (19).…”

“…In addition, the T and I isoforms of cTn (cTnT and cTnI) are highly specific proteins related to myocardial cell damage, and they have become key factors for the diagnosis of acute coronary syndromes and necrosis [ 3 ]. In this regard, serums cTnT and cTnI are elevated after irreversible heart muscle damage and peak during the subsequent days [ 4 , 5 ]. However, it has been shown that cTnI might have a slightly higher sensitivity and earlier release in cardiac injuries compared to cTnT.…”

“…High-sensitivity assays have replaced the standard ones and are able to measure the lowest limits of detection in 99% of the population with a coefficient of variation <10% and detect cTn concentrations in at least 50% of a healthy population at rest [ 7 ]. However, this higher sensitivity also allows for some false positives related to etiologies other than acute myocardial infarction (AMI), such as physical exercise [ 4 , 8 , 9 ]. The fourth definition in the clinical criteria for myocardial infarction (MI) denotes “the presence of acute myocardial injury detected by abnormal cardiac biomarkers in the setting of evidence of acute myocardial ischemia” [ 10 ].…”
