Diagnostic and prognostic performance of myeloperoxidase plasma levels compared with sensitive troponins in patients admitted with acute onset chest pain.
BACKGROUND Activation of leukocytes with release of myeloperoxidase (MPO) has been linked to acute coronary disease. To date, studies investigating the diagnostic and prognostic performance of circulating MPO in patients with chest pain (CP) are mainly retrospective, of low size, and lack a cut-off value for MPO. Herein, we prospectively assess the diagnostic and prognostic properties of MPO co...

Objective: Acute chest pain is an important and frequently occurring symptom in patients. Chest pain is often a sign of ischemic heart disease. Chest pain due to suspected Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) is responsible for a large and ijncreasing number of hospital attendances and admissions. Current practice for suspected ACS involves troponin testing 10–12 hours after symptom o...
متن کاملDiagnostic value of MPO in patients admitted for suspected acute coronary syndrome--a study of adult in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
We assessed the diagnostic efficacy of plasma Myeloperoxidasis (MPO) alone or in combination with cardiac troponin I (cTnI) for detecting ACS in patients presenting with chest pain initiating within 24 h before the hospital admission. In this prospective cohort study were included all respondents who have visited outpatient clinic of internal diseases, University Hospital Mostar because of ches...
متن کاملThe most sensitive double-marker method of cardiac isoenzymes of creatinine kinase, troponin I, and myoglobin in different time periods for diagnosing acute myocardial infarction
Purpose: Myocardial infarction is among the most common diagnoses in patients admitted to hospitals in western countries, and its rapid diagnosis is of utmost importance. This study was conducted to determine the most sensitive double-marker cardiac isoenzyme of creatinine kinase, troponin I, and myoglobin for diagnosing acute myocardial infarction. Materials and Methods: This was an ...
متن کاملDiagnostic Performance of High-Sensitivity Troponin T, Myeloperoxidase, and Pregnancy-Associated Plasma Protein A Assays for Triage of Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction
BACKGROUND Early diagnosis is the cornerstone of management of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). We aimed to compare the diagnostic accuracy of high-sensitivity troponin T (hs-cTnT) with myeloperoxidase (MPO) and pregnancy-associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A) for early diagnosis of AMI in patients at the time of presentation to the emergency department (ED). METHODS We enrolled 289 patients ...
