Multivariable cox proportional hazard model comparing acute hsTnT and chronic hsTnT with negative hsTnT as baseline.
| Variable | Hazards ratio | CI | P value |

| Acute hsTnT elevation | 8.30 | 1.80–17.84 | 0.013 |
| Chronic hsTnT elevation | 5.2 | 0.61–45.59 | 0.131 |
| Age | 1.11 | 1.04–1.18 | <0.001 |
| Male sex | 0.56 | 0.20–1.53 | 0.262 |
| CCI | 1.41 | 1.15–1.71 | 0.001 |
| Creatinine | 0.99 | 0.98–0.99 | 0.043 |
| CRP | 1.00 | 0.99–1.01 | 0.630 |
| Sepsis | 4.00 | 0.98–16.33 | 0.053 |
| ICU admission | 1.10 | 0.03–2.14 | 0.428 |
| MET calls | 1.04 | 0.27–3.93 | 0.953 |
CI, confidence interval; hsTnT, high sensitive troponins; CCI, charlson comorbidity index; CRP, C-reactive protein; ICU, intensive care admission; MET, medical emergency response team.
