Hepatitis B carrier on cardiac troponin I

Dear Editor, the publication on "Hepatitis B carrier on cardiac troponin I (cTnI)" is very interesting.1 Li et al. reported that "cTnI values significantly increased immediately following the race in the absence of adverse clinical sequelae, and HBVc runners had higher and prolonged cTnI levels. While several factors are identified for such HBV effects, the specific causes need further elucidation.1" As noted by Li et al., there are several confounding factors that can affect the cardiac troponin I level.
