Ferran Pons,Josep Lupón,Agustín Urrutia,Beatriz González,Eva Crespo,Crisanto Díez,Lucía Cano,Roser Cabanes,Salvador Altimir,Ramon Coll,Teresa Pascual,Vicente Valle +11 more

Marta de Antonio,Josep Lupón,Amparo Galán,Joan Vila,Elisabet Zamora,Agustín Urrutia,Crisanto Díez,Ramon Coll,Salvador Altimir,Antoni Bayes-Genis +9 more
TL;DR: Both high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T and sc-cTnI predict mortality in a real-life cohort of ambulatory HF patients, however, hs- cTnT showed globally better measures of performance and identified a higher proportion of decedents during follow-up.
