Copeptin improves early diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction.
OBJECTIVES Early identification of myocardial infarction in chest pain patients is crucial to identify patients at risk and to maintain a fast treatment initiation. BACKGROUND The aim of the current investigation is to test whether determination of copeptin, an indirect marker for arginin-vasopressin, adds diagnostic information to cardiac troponin in early evaluation of patients with suspect...
متن کاملStenting in Acute STEMI Intervention.
Stenting in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has the benefits of achieving acute optimal angiographic results and correcting residual dissection to decrease the incidence of restenosis and reocclusion. Studies have shown that percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty for primary treatment after AMI is superior to thrombolytic therapy regarding the restoration of normal coronary blood flow...
متن کاملCopeptin—Marker of Acute Myocardial Infarction
The concentration of copeptin, the C-terminal part of pro-arginine vasopressin, has been shown to increase early after acute and severe events. Owing to complementary pathophysiology and kinetics, the unspecific marker copeptin, in combination with highly cardio-specific troponin, has been evaluated as an early-rule-out strategy for acute myocardial infarction in patients presenting with signs ...
متن کاملFusion of Different Corneal Parameters to Improve the Diagnosis of Keratoconus
Purpose: To diagnose keratoconus from healthy eyes, as well as suspected keratoconus. Methods: Certain parameters were extracted from Casia, Corvis, and Pentacam HR devices for 3 groups of healthy, with keratoconus, and suspected keratoconus. This study was performed on 340 eyes with keratoconus, 310 normal eyes, and 350 suspected keratoconus. The processing method involved the fusion of featur...
