High-Sensitivity Troponin I and Cardiovascular Events in Stable Coronary Artery Disease: Insights from a Longitudinal Outpatient Study.

Numerous studies have been published suggesting that troponin levels are related to adverse outcomes in chronic cardiac and non-cardiac conditions. Our study investigated whether troponin levels gathered from unselected blood samples taken during outpatient care are associated with adverse outcomes in a population with stable coronary artery disease. In a cohort of 949 patients with stable coronary artery disease, an average age of 67.
