We sought to assess the association between high\u2010sensitivity troponin I (hsTnI) and N\u2010terminal pro\u2010B\u2010type natriuretic peptide (NTproBNP) with treated acute rejection (AR) and graft loss in pediatric heart transplant (HT) recipients.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Serum was collected and banked from pediatric HT recipients prior to cardiac catheterization. Patients with samples drawn within 365\u2009days post\u2010HT were included and followed for up to 5\u2009years. Generalized linear mixed\u2010effect models examined the association between hsTnI and treated AR using a random intercept per patient.

HsTnI was higher in AR versus no AR (6.2 vs. 3.5\u2009ng\/L, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001); doubling of hsTnI increased the odds of AR by 33% (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.004). HsTnI showed moderate discrimination for AR with an AUC of 0.811 (95% CI 0.76, 0.87) and a NPV of 96.4% (95% CI 93.0, 98.1). Elevation in NT\u2010proBNP was not associated with AR. In multivariable Cox modeling, a doubling of maximal NT\u2010proBNP was associated with graft loss (HR 8.96, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.014).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>In this pediatric HT cohort, HsTnI was moderately discriminative for AR and higher maximal NT\u2010proBNP was associated with graft loss.
