Elevated baseline hs-cTnT levels predict exercise-induced myocardial ischemia in patients with peripheral arterial disease

► A blood test for assessing cardiac risk might improve evaluation of CAD in PAD patients. ► We investigate the association of serum-hs-cTnT with exercise-induced myocardial ischemia. ► Elevated baseline levels of hs-cTnT predict exercise-induced myocardial ischemia.
