Evaluates high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T and cognitive decline in stroke patients over 12 months, highlighting links between subclinical myocardial injury and cerebral small vessel disease.
Subclinical myocardial injury in form of hs-cTn (high-sensitivity cardiac troponin) levels has been associated with cognitive impairment and imaging markers of cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) in population-based and cardiovascular cohorts. Whether hs-cTn is associated with domain-specific cognitive decline and SVD burden in patients with stroke remains unknown.
