High‐Sensitivity Cardiac Troponin T in Healthy Sport‐Participating Youth Aged 8–16 Years: Reference Values From the Cor‐School Cohort
hs-cTnT increases physiologically during adolescence, reflecting biological maturation. Pediatric-specific reference values by age and developmental stage are recommended to avoid misclassification. As all participants were regularly engaged in organized sport, the reference values obtained likely represent the upper end of physiological hs-cTnT concentrations in physically active youth.
