Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Baseline and post-exercise concentrations of high-sensitivity cTn I (hs-cTnI) and T (hs-cTnT) will be established for our primary aim.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Subsequently, the prevalence and magnitude of coronary artery calcification (i.e. Agatston score) and atherosclerotic plaque characteristics (density, phenotype (calcified/partially calcified/non-calcified), degree of stenosis, CT-derived fractional flow reserve), will be assessed in a subgroup of n=100 individuals with high versus n=50 with low post-exercise hs-cTnI concentrations. Finally, we will assess the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events yearly and (cardiovascular and all-cause) mortality at 5-, 10-, 15-, and 20-years of follow-up.
