Key result
Physical activity can induce an increase in cardiac troponin levels in apparently healthy individuals, though the underlying mechanisms and clinical significance remain to be fully determined.
Why the study?
The prevalence across various exercise conditions and populations, underlying mechanisms, and clinical significance of exercise-induced cardiac troponin release have not yet been fully determined.
Does physical activity increase cardiac troponin levels in apparently healthy people?
Does physical activity increase cardiac troponin levels in apparently healthy people?
This review highlights that exercise can induce cardiac troponin release in apparently healthy individuals, though the clinical significance and underlying mechanisms remain to be fully determined.
Exercise-related troponin rises merit cautious interpretation in healthy individuals; leaves mechanisms and clinical significance unresolved.
It is well known that regular physical activity has a beneficial effect on the cardiovascular system and reduces the risk of heart disease; however, numerous studies have shown an increase in heart troponin levels after exercise, which indicates damage to the myocardium in apparently healthy people. The prevalence of these results in various exercise conditions and population groups, as well as the potential underlying mechanisms and clinical significance of exercise-induced cardiac troponin release, has not yet been fully determined. This review discusses the effect of exercise on cardiac troponin levels and possible mechanisms for increasing these biomarkers.

Chaulin et al. (2020) conducted a review in Exercise-induced cardiac troponin release. Physical activity was evaluated on Cardiac troponin levels. Physical activity can induce an increase in cardiac troponin levels in apparently healthy individuals, though the underlying mechanisms and clinical significance remain to be fully determined.
