摘　　要：Evidence-based consensus suggests that physical activity and regular exercise training can reduce modifiable risk factors as well as rate of mortality and morbidity in patients with chronic diseases,such as cardiovascular disease(CVD),diabetes,obesity and cancer.Conversely,long-term exercise training and drastic increase in vigorous physical activity may also cause acute cardiovascular events(e.g.acute myocardial infarction)and deleterious cardiac remodeling,particularly when exercise is performed by unfit or susceptible individuals.There is a reversed J-shaped hormesis-like curve between the duration and intensity of exercise and level of CVD risks.Therefore,it is important for an early detection of cardiac injuries in professional and amateur athletes.Under this context,this article focuses on the use of biomarker testing,an indispensable component in the current clinical practices especially in Cardiology and Oncology.We attempt to justify the importance of using circulating biomarkers in routine practices of Sports Medicine for an objective assessment of CVD events following exercise.Special attentions are dedicated to three established or emerging cardiac biomarkers(i.e.cardiac troponins,natriuretic peptides,hypoxanthine)for myocardial tissue hypoxia/ischemia events,muscle stress,and the consequent cellular necrotic injury.Based on these focused analyses,we propose use of circulating biomarker testing in both laboratory and point-of-care settings with an increasingly broader involvement or participation of team physicians,trainers,coaches,primary care doctors,as well as educated athlete community.This diagnostic approach may improve the quality of medical surveillance and preventive measures on exercise-related CVD risks/outcomes.
