- The study examines how long elevated levels of cardiac troponin I (TnI) affect the prognosis and risk of new-onset atrial fibrillation (NOAF) in elderly patients with non-ST-elevation acute myocardial infarction (NSTE-AMI).
- Researchers divided 383 patients aged 75 and older into two groups based on TnI elevation duration: 194 with elevations lasting 14 days or more, and 189 with shorter elevations, following them for 60 months to assess cardiovascular outcomes.
- Findings indicate that TnI elevation for 14 days or more is linked to worse outcomes and all-cause death, while factors like uric acid and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein are associated with
