Prognostic value of elevated cardiac troponin in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a common intracranial hemorrhagic condition associated with a high mortality rate and significant disability due to serious complications. In clinical practice, we have observed that elevated serum cardiac troponin (cTn) levels correlate with a poor prognosis in SAH. Although some studies have reported this correlation, these studies had small sample sizes and did not make a distinction between traumatic SAH and aneurysmal SAH. Accordingly, we aimed to systematically analyze the prognostic evaluation value of elevated cTn levels in SAH by reviewing all existing studies to provide a clinical reference.

Methods

We selected studies on cTn and SAH from PubMed, Medline, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Clinical Trails databa
