Importance Little is known about the relationship between perioperative high-sensitivity
troponin T (hsTnT) measurements and 30-day mortality and myocardial injury after noncardiac …

BACKGROUND: Among adults undergoing contemporary noncardiac surgery, little is
known about the frequency and timing of death and the associations between perioperative …

Background: It is unclear whether diabetes mellitus (DM) is an adverse prognostic factor in
chronic heart failure (CHF) of ischaemic and non-ischaemic aetiology managed with …
