Popis: Background: Myocardial injury (INJ) expressed by elevated high-sensitivity troponin (hs-Tn) is common in heart failure (HF), due to cardiovascular and non-cardiac conditions. The mechanisms of INJ in acute decompensated HF (ADHF) versus chronic HF (CHF) are still debated. This study’s purpose was to evaluate the determinants of elevated hs-TnT in ADHF and CHF.
