Cardiac Troponin in Autoimmune Rheumatic Diseases: Lights and Shadows
Listen to this summary
This review investigates the role of cardiac troponin (cTn) as a biomarker for cardiac involvement in autoimmune rheumatic diseases (ARDs), addressing its diagnostic and prognostic value amid the complexities of interpreting cTn elevations due to various factors. The authors highlight the potential of high sensitivity cTn assays to detect myocardial injury and predict cardiovascular events, while also acknowledging the challenges posed by comorbidities and analytical interferences. Ultimately, they emphasize the need for careful interpretation of cTn results to enhance diagnosis and treatment strategies in ARD patients.
