Cardiac troponin increases among runners in the Boston Marathon.
Ann Emerg Med. 2007; (2): 137-43, 143.e1
Studies indicate that running a marathon can be associated with increases in serum cardiac troponin levels. The clinical significance of such increases remains unclear. We seek to determine the prevalence of troponin increases and epidemiologic factors associated with these increases in a large and heterogeneous cohort of marathon finishers.
