Clinicians should interpret postexercise cTnT elevations cautiously to avoid misdiagnosing AMI in athletes; extends evidence of release in nearly half of endurance participants.
Does endurance exercise induce cardiac troponin T release in athletes?
Exercise-induced cTnT release occurs in nearly half of endurance athletes, particularly heavier individuals in shorter running events, which is critical context for diagnosing AMI in this population.
Shave et al. (2007) studied this question.
