TABLE 2.

Estimated Event Probability for Cardiovascular Events at 1 Year as a Function of hsTnI Concentration at the Time of Presentation

hsTnI Quartile
Q1 (≤1 ng/l) (n = 1,105) Q2 (1.1–1.6 ng/l) (n = 1,021) Q3 (1.7–2.5 ng/l) (n = 913 Q4 (≥2.6 ng/l) (n = 982) p Value*
Estimated event probability for death, acute MI, or hospitalization for unstable angina 0.8 (9) 1.5 (15) 2.3 (20) 3.1 (30) 0.001
Estimated event probability for cardiovascular death or acute MI 0.4 (4) 0.6 (6) 0.8 (7) 1.2 (11) 0.20

Values are % (n).

*

The p value is generated using the Kaplan-Meier method. hsTnI = high-sensitivity troponin I; MI = myocardial infarction; Q = quartile.
