Myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery (MINS) is a common postoperative complication
associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes. The purpose of this systematic review was …

… Dr Puelacher performed literature review and created the figures. Dr Puelacher, Dr Lurati
Buse, Dr Wildi, and Prof Mueller had full access to the data. All authors contributed to data …

Peri-operative myocardial injury, detected by dynamic and elevated cardiac troponin (cTn)
concentrations, is a common complication of noncardiac surgery that is strongly associated …

Background: We aimed to prospectively validate a novel 1-hour algorithm using high-sensitivity
cardiac troponin T measurement for early rule-out and rule-in of acute myocardial …

Currently, we are limited to appreciating the vast extent of the MINS problem and applying
recommendations based on observational data or derived from the nonoperative setting. …

Background— It is unknown whether more sensitive cardiac troponin (cTn) assays maintain
their clinical utility in patients with renal dysfunction. Moreover, their optimal cutoff levels in …

… After centrifugation, samples were frozen at −80C until assayed in a blinded fashion in a
core laboratory. The Abbott hs-cTnI assay used was the final precommercial release version of …

Background : The safety of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) 0/1-h algorithm for
rapid rule-out and rule-in of non–ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) using …

… After centrifugation (30 minutes, 3000 relative centrifugal force, 4C), samples were frozen
at –80C until assayed in a blinded fashion in a dedicated core laboratory. According to the …

… After centrifugation, samples were either analyzed directly or frozen at −80C until they were
… Elevation of pro-inflammatory cytokines, C-reactive protein and cardiac troponin T in chronic …
