Greater postexercise hs-cTnT in adolescents than adults; hypothesis-generating and should not yet change practice or thresholds.
Does prolonged treadmill exercise cause different hs-cTnT release kinetics in adolescent compared to adult athletes?
Prolonged exercise induces a transient elevation in hs-cTnT that peaks at 3-4 hours and is significantly more pronounced in adolescent compared to adult athletes.
Tian et al. (2012) studied this question.
