It has been previously shown that cardiac troponin (cTn) is released in response to prolonged endurance exercise. The influence of short-duration high-intensity exercise upon the release of cTn is not known. We examined cardiac troponin I (cTnI) release pre-, during and post-30 min of high-intensity running exercise in eight recreationally active males (age 29±3 years; VO2peak 53±11 ml kg min(-1)). Following exercise, cTnI increased in six of the eight participants. Four participants showed a minimal response (<0.05 µg/l) post-exercise. In contrast, two participants showed a progressive increase in cTnI (>0.1 µg/l) following exercise which peaked 3-4 h post-exercise. cTnI returned below the detection limit of the assay in all bar one of the participants 24 h post-exercise. These data are the first to show that cTnI can be released following short-duration high-intensity exercise. Clinicians should be aware that exercise-induced release of cTnI is not limited to prolonged endurance activity.

The mechanisms underlying cooperative activation and inactivation of myocardial force extend from local, near-neighbor interactions involving troponin-tropomyosin regulatory units (RU) and crossbridges (XB) to more global interactions across the sarcomere. To better understand these mechanisms in the hearts of small and large mammals, we undertook a simplified mathematical approach to assess the contribution of three types of near-neighbor cooperative interactions, i.e.

Aims: Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), which is caused by wide various conditions, has become a major public health problem. Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM), which is thought to be an underdiagnosed disease, can cause HFpEF. Non-invasive diagnosis using Technetium (Tc)-pyrophosphate (PYP) scintigraphy enables accurate diagnosis of ATTR-CM.

Background: Identifying and eliminating health disparities is a public health priority. The goal of this analysis is to determine whether cardiac testing or outcome disparities exist by race or sex in patients with detectable to mildly elevated serum troponin.
Methods: We conducted a secondary analysis of the CMR-IMPACT trial that randomized patients with symptoms suggestive of acute coronary syndrome and a detectable or mildly elevated troponin measure from 4 US hospitals to an early invasive angiography or cardiac MRI strategy.
Perioperative infarction during coronary bypass surgery: an attempt to refine the diagnostic criteria using data from a retrospective case-control study.

Objective: The definition of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG)-associated myocardial infarction (MI) is controversial because the postoperative increases in cardiac enzyme activities are multifactorial in origin.
Methods: We performed a retrospective case-control study of patients who experienced perioperative MI (cardiac enzyme release, electrocardiographic changes, dysfunction on echocardiography) and those without ischemia to identify risk factors and enzyme activity thresholds.
Results: The estimated incidence of CABG-associated MI was 2.
Biological variation of cardiac biomarkers in athletes during an entire sport season.

Deparment of Laboratory Medicine, 16268 La Paz University Hospital, Madrid, Spain.
Objectives: Cardiac biomarkers are useful for the diagnostic and prognostic assessment of myocardial injury (MI) and heart failure. By measuring specific proteins released into the bloodstream during heart stress or damage, these biomarkers help clinicians detect the presence and extent of heart injury and tailor appropriate treatment plans. This study aims to provide robust biological variation (BV) data for cardiac biomarkers in athletes, specifically focusing on those applied to detect or exclude MI, such as myoglobin, creatine kinase-myocardial band (CK-MB) and cardiac troponins (cTn), and those related to heart failure and cardiac dysfunction, brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and N-terminal brain natriuretic pro-peptide (NT-proBNP).
