Canola and regular rapeseed oils are extracted from the seeds of several of the brassica plants - the same family of plants from which we get vegetables such as Brussels sprouts, broccoli, cabbage, kale, mustard greens, and several other vegetables.
Cardiac troponins are elevated in 85% of patients with sepsis in the absence of acute coronary syndrome. Small studies have shown that elevated troponin levels identify patients with sepsis who are at increased risk of mortality.
Of 24 patients, 21% had TnI levels â¥ 0.4 ng/mL. TnI levels above the cut-off for acute MI in their laboratory (2.3 ng/mL) were detected in 4% of the patients. The lower incidence of troponin elevation in the latter study is likely due to the exclusion of patients with massive PE.
