Circulating cardiac troponin T exhibits a diurnal rhythm.

L.J. Klinkenberg; Jan-Willem van Dijk; F.E. Tan; Luc van Loon; M.P. van Dieijen-Visser; S.J. Meex

OBJECTIVES: The goal of this study was to test the unverified assumption that chronically elevated cardiac troponin T (cTnT) levels fluctuate randomly around a homeostatic set point. BACKGROUND: The introduction of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (cTn) assays has improved sensitivity for acute myocardial …

Usefulness of cardiopulmonary exercise testing to predict the development of arterial hypertension in adult patients with repaired isolated coarctation of the aorta.

Alexander Van de Bruaene; Jan Müller; Werner Budts; Luc Vanhees (Lector); Alessandro Giardini; Rosalien Buys; Sachin Khambadkone; Veronique Cornelissen

BACKGROUND: Patients who underwent surgery for aortic coarctation (COA) have an increased risk of arterial hypertension. We aimed at evaluating (1) differences between hypertensive and non-hypertensive patients and (2) the value of cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) to predict the development or …

Clinical recommendations for cardiopulmonary exercise testing data assessment in specific patient populations. EACPR/AHA Joint Scientific Statement

Jonathan Meyers; Daniel Forman; Carl Lavie; Ross Arena; Viviane Conraads; Dalane Kitzman; Luc Vanhees (Lector); Marco Guazzi; Gerald Fletcher; Alessandro Mezzani; Volker Adams; Martin Halle

From an evidence-based perspective, cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPX) is a well-supported assessment technique in both the United States (US) and Europe. The combination of standard exercise testing (ET) [i.e. progressive exercise provocation in association with serial electrocardiograms (ECGs), …
