Key findings:
- age and sex had a significant effect on the 99th percentile of serum hs-cTnT concentration in both cohorts
- hospitalization is associated with higher hs-cTnT levels in in most age groups than in individuals in the general population, even in patients without diagnosed or suspected heart disease
- age- and sex-specific hs-cTnT reference values may be beneficial for hospitalized patients
