TNNI3 and chronic kidney disease: The optimal value of hs-TnI in diagnosing AMI was 1.15 ng mL−1, which were higher in males than females comparing different cutoff-values of subgroups divided by age, gender and renal function, and which increased monotonically with decreasing of eGFR because in patients with CKD without AMI, the correlation between hs-cTnI and renal function is low but significant (r2 = 0.067, P < 0.001).
