Canola and regular rapeseed oils are extracted from the seeds of several of the brassica plants - the same family of plants from which we get vegetables such as Brussels sprouts, broccoli, cabbage, kale, mustard greens, and several other vegetables.
Cardiac troponins are elevated in 85% of patients with sepsis in the absence of acute coronary syndrome. Small studies have shown that elevated troponin levels identify patients with sepsis who are at increased risk of mortality.
In addition to its use in the diagnosis of MI, an elevated troponin level can identify patients at high risk for adverse cardiac events. [23, 24] Specifically, data from a meta-analysis indicated that an elevated troponin level in patients without ST-segment elevation is associated with a nearly 4-fold increase in the cardiac mortality rate.
