Implication

Post-marathon biomarker rises require cautious interpretation in symptomatic runners; leaves open long-term prognostic implications.

Structured PICO

Does marathon running change cardiac troponin and NT-proBNP concentrations in runners?

Population

46 randomly selected participants (40 males and 6 females) of the Mainz Marathon 2002 (Germany), mean age 40 (7) years, with no particular exclusion criteria.

Intervention

Marathon running

Outcome

Concentrations of cardiac troponin T (cTnT), cardiac troponin I (cTnI), and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP)surrogate
