TNNI3 and coronary artery disorder: 72 of these 140 CHD patients had high levels of plasma cTnI, approximately 169-fold increase as compared with non-CHD patients (Figure 4A); but the remaining 68 CHD patients had very low levels of cTnI (≤ 0.05 ng/mL), which were not consistent with the severity of coronary artery stenosis.
