This invention relates to the field of myocardial disorders. It discloses that antibodies to a cardiac troponin found in a sample obtained from an individual can be used as a diagnostic marker, especially in the assessment of an individual's risk of developing a myocardial disorder. A method aiding in the assessment of an individual's risk of developing a myocardial disorder, comprising measuring in vitro antibodies to a cardiac troponin and optionally one or more other marker useful in assessing an individual's risk of developing a myocardial disorder, and correlating the value or the values obtained to the individual's risk of developing a myocardial disorder is decribed. |
