Ischemia-modified albumin concentrations in patients with peripheral vascular disease and exercise-induced skeletal muscle ischemia.
BACKGROUND Ischemia-modified albumin (IMA) is a new marker of myocardial ischemia, there is concern that IMA concentrations may be affected by ischemia occurring in tissues other than the myocardium. METHODS We assessed 23 consecutive patients (15 males; mean age, 67 years) with typical leg claudication and documented peripheral vascular disease (PVD). All patients underwent both treadmill-ex...

متن کاملIschemia-modified albumin concentrations should be interpreted with caution in patients with low serum albumin concentrations.
OBJECTIVE Ischemia-modified albumin (IMA((R))) is a novel marker for assessing cardiac ischaemia. We assessed the relationship between total albumin concentrations and IMA in serum to investigate whether interpretation of IMA was albumin-dependent. SUBJECTS AND METHODS 298 serum samples were assayed for total albumin (albumin), using bromcresol purple, and IMA, using an indirect colorimetric ...
متن کاملIschemia-modified albumin in type 2 diabetic patients with and without peripheral arterial disease
OBJECTIVE To determine whether there is an association between serum ischemia-modified albumin and the risk factor profile in type 2 diabetic patients with peripheral arterial disease and to identify the risk markers for peripheral arterial disease. METHODS Participants included 290 patients (35.2% women) with type 2 diabetes. The ankle-brachial pressure index was measured using a standard pr...
متن کاملIschemia-modified albumin and myocardial ischemia.
Sbarouni et al. (1) reported on “Ischemia-Modified Albumin [IMA] in Relation to Exercise Stress Testing [EST]” in a previous issue of the Journal. Although the investigators found significant differences in the IMA values at baseline, peak exercise, and after EST, there was no relation between the IMA changes and the result of the EST. The researchers stated that changes in IMA levels do not re...
