Embolic complications of t-PA are beginning to be recognized with increased use of t-PA for acute ischemic stroke. We hypothesize that disruption of intra-cardiac thrombus may result in myocardi...

CTn-I is a protein unique to cardiac muscle and is released after MI. Consecutive 150 patients admitted to the coronary care unit was studied. Value of CTn-I was determined in all samples. CTn-I concentration in the MI patients group was increased com...
