Prognostic value of C-Reactive Protein in Acute Coronary Syndromes
Introduction: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is among the most common, serious, chronic and life- threatening illnesses in the world. CAD represents a spectrum of conditions, with acute myocardial infarction at one end of it and silent ischemia at the other. There is growing evidence on importance of prognosis of C- reactive protein (CPR) in unstable angina and this protein is a maker of an adve...

Results Among patients in the first, second, and third SS tertiles, the 1-year rates of mortality were 1.5%, 1.6%, and 4.0%, respectively (p 0.0005); the cardiac mortality rates were 0.2%, 0.9%, and 2.7%, respectively (p 0.0001); the myocardial infarction (MI) rates were 6.3%, 8.3%, and 12.9%, respectively (p 0.0001); and the target vessel revascularization (TVR) rates were 7.4%, 7.0%, and 9.8%...
متن کاملPrognostic value of admission glucose and glycosylated haemoglobin levels in acute coronary syndromes.
BACKGROUND Admission hyperglycaemia is associated with poorer prognosis in patients with an acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Whether hyperglycaemia is more important than prior long-term glucose metabolism, is unknown. AIM To investigate the prognostic value of admission glucose and HbA(1c) levels in patients with ACS. METHODS We measured glucose and HbA(1c) at admission in 521 consecutive pa...
متن کاملPrognostic value of elevated biomarkers in diabetic and non-diabetic patients admitted for acute coronary syndromes.
D iabetes is not only a predisposing factor for cardiovascular disease but once diabetic patients develop coronary artery disease (CAD) they have significantly worse outcomes compared to non-diabetic patients. 2 Diabetes is an independent risk factor for a worse outcome after presentation with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Prior studies have demonstrated that diabetic patients without previous...
