Cardiac troponin I and the risk of cardiovascular or non-cardiovascular death in patients visiting the emergency department

Abstract The prognostic implication of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) values for the determination of the magnitude or duration of cause-specific death risk is limited. We included consecutive patients with maximal cTnI values within 24 h of their emergency department visits. Multivariate analyses using...

description Abstract The prognostic implication of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) values for the determination of the magnitude or duration of cause-specific death risk is limited. We included consecutive patients with maximal cTnI values within 24 h of their emergency department visits. Multivariate analyses using variables selected by the Bayesian information criterion were performed to investigate the impact of cTnI on the event rate, time-dependent risk, and dose-dependent risk of cardiovascular or non-cardiovascular death within 360 days. There were 5472 (14.9%) all-cause deaths including 881 (2.4%) cardiovascular deaths and 4591 (12.5%) non-cardiovascular deaths. In patients with positive cTnI, defined as the ≥ 99th percentile of the upper normal limit, the cumulative risk of cardiac and non-cardiac death was 4.4- and 1.4-fold higher, respectively, than that of negative cTnI, respectively. In the competing risk analysis, positive cTnI was linked to 2.4- and 1.2-fold higher risks of cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular death, respectively. The cTnI value showed a positive relationship with the risk of both cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular deaths. In the time-dependent risk analysis, the excess risk of cardiovascular death was mostly evident in the first few weeks. Higher cTnI value was associated with an increased risk of both cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular death, especially which was in the early period.
