Abstract
High level of cardiac Troponin T (hs-cTnT) in geriatric population has been considered as an age-related phenomenon, which may question the interpretation of the increase of hs-cTnT in this population. The challenge is what is the primary cause of the increased hs-cTnT levels in elderly patients without AMI. OBJECTIVE: The aim of the current study was to determine the impact of aging on hs-cTnT levels in elderly patients without acute cardiac events but in the presence of comorbidities. METHODS: Sociodemographic and clinical data were collected from 6977 medical records of patients aged ≥65 years without acute coronary events but for whom hs-cTnT measurements were available. The patients were stratified based on age, troponin levels and the number of comorbidities. RESULTS: 1.311. Besides statistical significance for age, from a clinical standpoint, the AOR of 1.070 may not be considered clinically relevant. CONCLUSION: Increased hs-cTnT levels were associated with the presence of pre-existing comorbidities independently of age. Increased hs-cTnT levels in the elderly should always be considered as pathological, and a specific etiology should be searched.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
