Besides a diagnosis of AMI or UA (odds ratio (OR) 53.8 95% CI 3.37–859), the multivariate analysis showed that age at least 65 years (OR 10.9 95% CI 2.28–51.8) and an NT-proBNP value in accordance with heart failure (OR 8.62 95% CI 1.61–46.1) were significantly related to hs-cTnT >15 ng/L (Table 3). This evidence concerns the gene TNNT2 and heart failure.
