Key result
High-sensitivity cardiac troponin I concentrations within sex-specific reference intervals were investigated for their prognostic impact, though no results are reported in the abstract.
Why the study?
The clinical implications of measurable cardiac troponin within the reference interval in emergency department patients remain uncertain.
Does high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I within sex-specific reference intervals predict prognosis in emergency department patients?
Observational
Does high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I within sex-specific reference intervals predict prognosis in emergency department patients?
The study aims to determine the clinical features and prognostic impact of measurable hs-cTnI within sex-specific reference intervals in emergency department patients.
hs-cTnI within sex-specific references leaves prognostic impact unresolved; further studies needed before any risk-stratification role.
linical implications of measurable cardiac troponin (cTn) within the reference interval in emergency department patients remain uncertain. Using highsensitivity (hs) cTnI, our goals were 3-fold. First, we examined clinical features of patients with hs-cTnI within sex-specific reference intervals. Second, we examined the prognostic impact of hs-cTnI within sex-specific reference intervals using baseline and serial measurements. Third, using hs-cTnI reference change values (RCVs; biological variation), we determined the prognostic impact of serial changes within sex-specific intervals.

Sandoval et al. (2019) conducted an observational in Emergency department patients. High-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI) within sex-specific reference intervals was evaluated. High-sensitivity cardiac troponin I concentrations within sex-specific reference intervals were investigated for their prognostic impact, though no results are reported in the abstract.
