Adjusted for risk factors in PREDICT CVD v.2019; hs-cTnI, high sensitivity cardiac troponin I; hs-cTnT, high sensitivity cardiac troponin T; NT-proBNP, N-terminal pro b-type natriuretic peptide; the multivariable Cox regression model included the PREDICT CVD v.2019 risk factors and one cardiac biomarker (hs-cTnI or hs-cTnT or NT-proBNP).
