Background: All of the recent guidelines now endorse the use of troponin as the biomarker or choice for the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI).
Methods: Review of the recent guidelines criteria.

Background: Although there is comprehensive information on traditional biomarkers of muscle and cardiac damage following exercise, less is known on the kinetics of innovative markers, including ischemia modified albumin (IMA), glycogen phosphorylase isoenzyme BB (GPBB), carbonic anhydrase III (CAIII) and heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (H-FABP) in athletes performing a sub-maximal exercise.
Methods: A total of 10 healthy trained Caucasian males performed a 21-km run...
