Figure 1 The best fitting curve with the highest adjusted r2 between log-transformed high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T levels and age (linear) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (logarithmic) are marked as red in A and B, respectively. The green line represents the high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T cutoff value of 0.014 μg/L.
