Rapid Diagnosis of Acute Myocardial Infarction
To improve the specificity of biochemical markers of myocardial infarction (MI) a method to measure cardiac troponin-I (CTn-I) was developed. 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...

متن کاملNew diagnostic criteria of acute myocardial infarction.
735 For the last four decades the diagnosis of MI has been based on the WHO criteria. The definition of MI required the presence of at least two of the following three factors: clinical history of ischemic chest pain; serial changes in ECG; a rise and fall in serum cardiac enzymes. These criteria have been extensively modified by the clinicians in their application: chest pain is often non-spec...
متن کاملVitamin D deficiency predicts the ST elevation type of myocardial infarction in patients with acute coronary syndrome.
According to studies, a significant association exists between the low levels of vitamin D and cardiovascular diseases such as myocardial infarction (MI). In a prospective, case control study, 88 patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) including ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and Non-STEMI were enrolled. The plasma level of 25-hydroxy vitamin D[25(OH)D] was obtained at the time ...
