dc.abstract.enBackground: Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with end-stage renal disease. Aims: This study aimed to assess the prognostic value of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) in identifying patients with obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) among patients on hemodialysis listed for kidney transplantation. Methods: The study prospectively enrolled consecutive adult hemodialysis patients listed for kidney transplantation. They underwent laboratory tests and a standardized set of imaging and functional tests, including coronary angiography, according to patient characteristics. Results: The study included 100 consecutive patients (72 men)at a median age of 56.5 years. Ultimately, 48% of the patients were diagnosed with obstructive CAD. Age and plasma hs-cTnT levels predicted the diagnosis of obstructive CAD (OR, 1.13; 95% CI, 1.08–1.20; P <0.001 and OR, 1.03l 95% CI, 1.01–1.05; P = 0.001, respectively). The calculated cut-off value for age was 53 years, which showed sensitivity of 87.5% and specificity of 76.9% for obstructive CAD diagnosis. The calculated value for hs-cTnT was 0.067 ng/ml, which showed sensitivity of 61.4% and specificity of 82.2% for the detection of obstructive CAD. In patients aged >52 years, 79.2% were diagnosed with obstructive CAD. However, in the group of patients ≤52 years and with hs-cTnT >0.069 ng/ml, the incidence of obstructive CAD was significantly higher than in the group with hs-cTnT level ≤0.069 ng/ml. Conclusions: Baseline hs-cTnT level is a useful prognostic biomarker in the diagnosis of obstructive CAD in hemodialysis patients listed for kidney transplantation.
