“…Cut-off values for children were defined in the studies as age-specific and sex-specific values previously reported by Nir  et al 29 31 32 and Albers  et al 13 33. Also, sex-specific and age-specific cut-off values defined by Fradley  et al 34 (ranging from 42.5 to 106.4 ng/L in males and 111.0–215.9 ng/mL in females depending on age) were used 32. Abnormal NT-proBNP values were seen in 5.3% up to 13% of the patients; we did not observe a relation with NT-proBNP cut-off values (table 2).…”

“…Both studies, hence, validate the importance of using conventional troponin for surveillance post-chemotherapy as both a sensitive and reproducible marker of myocardial dysfunction, prior to development of HF. There is also increasing data emerging from survivors of childhood cancers which shows that cTnI and hs-TnI were not consistently elevated in patients who developed LV dysfunction on imaging [ 68 70 ]. Hence, these studies demonstrate that although troponin is a sensitive marker during and early after chemotherapy, it is not a sensitive marker for ongoing surveillance of subclinical cardiotoxicity post-chemotherapy, when compared to other biomarkers such as NPs.…”

“…Survivors of childhood cancers represent a growing group of patients studied to screen for late adverse cardiac effects from chemotherapy agents. Multiple studies have shown that in childhood cancer survivors who were treated with anthracycline therapy, cTn and hs-cTn were not elevated in patients who developed cardiac dysfunction on imaging [18][19][20]. These studies demonstrate that troponin may not be a sensitive marker for late onset sub-clinical cardio-toxicity.…”
