Troponin in diabetic patients with and without chronic coronary artery disease

Abstract: BackgroundCardiac-specific troponin detected with the new high-sensitivity assays can be chronically elevated in response to cardiovascular comorbidities and confer important prognostic information, in the absence of unstable coronary syndromes. Both diabetes mellitus and coronary artery disease are known predictors of troponin elevation. It is not known whether diabetic patients with coronary artery disease have different levels of troponin compared with diabetic patients with normal coronary arteries. To inv… Show more

“…Troponin I, but not brain natriuretic peptide, has been shown to be elevated in human patients with DM and coronary disease (Segre et al 2015). Therefore, cTnI appears to be the most promising biomarker for assessing the impact of DM on cardiomyocytes.…”

“…It has been shown that in diabetic patients with multiple associated cardiovascular risk factors, troponin may be used as a CVD biomarker. [ 21 ] Lin-Tan et al . showed that basal fasting glucose levels play an important role in short-term mortality of diabetic maintenance HD patients.…”

“…Elevated levels of 3-NT have been also found in a variety of human diseases in recent research, including T2D, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases, but the available data are partially conflicting ( Table 7 ). For instance, while Ravassa et al found higher 3-NT levels in T2D patients with additional cardiovascular events, no differences were observed by Segre and colleagues although baseline parameters of the study populations and the used methods were similar [ 189 , 190 ]. Moreover, recent research in AD patients revealed higher 3-NT levels compared to healthy volunteers, whereas no differences were found in a previous investigation by Ryberg and colleagues, but these studies are only partially comparable since different specimens and methodological approaches have been used [ 151 , [191] , [192] , [193] ].…”
