Cardiac Troponin-T Release After Sport and Differences by Age, Sex, Training Type, Volume, and Intensity: A Critical Review

Conclusions: Postexercise release of cTn can be observed both in young and master athletes and usually represents a physiological phenomenon; however, more rarely, it may unmask a subclinical cardiac disease. The influence of different confounders (age, sex, sport type/intensity/duration, and training level) should be better clarified to establish individualized ranges of normality for postexercise cTn elevation.
