Complement factors in Acute Myocardial Infarction and Unstable Angina
Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is one of the most important and lethal diseases in the world. CAD represents a board spectrum of disease from silent ischemia at one end to sudden cardiac death at the other end. The middle of this spectrum consists of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and unstable angina pectoris (UA). Recent data show that the inflammatory process plays a major r...

Myocardial Infarction To the Editor: Nonocclusive thrombus on preexisting plaques, dynamic obstruction, progressive obstruction, inflammation and/or infection, and secondary unstable angina seem to be the 5 not mutually exclusive causes of the unstable angina syndrome. These were suggested in the excellent editorial by E. Braunwald.1 In this editorial, it was pointed out that vasospastic angina...
متن کاملComparison of serum parathyroid hormone level between patients with acute myocardial infarction, unstable angina, and normal coronary function
Background: Nowadays, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are among the most common causes of mortalities worldwide. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) has an important role in the pathogenesis of CVDs. The aim of the current study was to compare serum PTH levels between patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI), unstable angina, and normal coronary function. Methods: This descriptive and analytic stud...
متن کاملMacrophage heterogeneity of culprit coronary plaques in patients with acute myocardial infarction or stable angina.
We investigated the polarization states of macrophages in coronary atherectomy tissues retrieved from patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI, n = 52) or stable angina pectoris (SAP, n = 22). The specimens were analyzed immunohistochemically using antibodies specific to CD11c (M1 marker), CD206 (M2 marker), and to markers of endothelial cells, macrophages, and smooth muscle cells. Baseli...
متن کاملCoronary angioplasty in unstable angina and stable angina: a comparison of success and complications.
One hundred and five patients with unstable angina and 175 with chronic stable angina were treated by primary percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty. Patients with unstable angina had had symptoms for a shorter time and were more likely to have angiographically complex lesions and lesions less than 10 mm in length than patients with chronic stable angina. Other baseline variables were n...
