Does elevated cardiac troponin T contribute to prediction of worse in-hospital outcomes after endovascular therapy for acute limb ischemia?
ALI patients frequently have elevated cTnT, which is associated with increased in-hospital mortality and amputation. Even small cTnT elevations predict a markedly increased risk of worse in-hospital outcome; however, the overall mortality and amputation rate in our study was low.
There were no differences in the insulin resitance indexes between the group with SPE and normal controls.
