Korean J Intern Med. 2025;40(1):65-77. Published online January 1, 2025
Background/Aims: Elevated troponin levels predict in-hospital mortality and influence decisions regarding thrombolytic therapy in patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE). However, the usefulness of high-sensitivity troponin T (hsTnT) regarding PE remains uncertain. We aimed to establish the opti..

Prognostic value of total triiodothyronine and free thyroxine levels for the heart failure in patients with acute myocardial infarction
Min Gyu Kang, Jong Ryeal Hahm, Kye-Hwan Kim, Hyun-Woong Park, Jin-Sin Koh, Seok-Jae Hwang, Jin-Yong Hwang, Jong Hwa Ahn, Yongwhi Park, Young-Hoon Jeong, Jeong Rang Park, Choong Hwan Kwak
Korean J Intern Med. 2018;33(3):512-521. Published online January 11, 2017
Background/Aims: Although a low triiodothyronine (T3) state is closely associated with heart failure (HF), it is uncertain whether total T3 levels on admission is correlated with the clinical outcomes of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The aim of this study is to investigate the prognostic value..
