Serum sialic acid and its lipid and protein bounds as possible biomarkers of acute myocardial infarction in erbil
نویسندگان
چکیده
Backgrounds and objectives: Myocardial infarction (MI) usually occurs when coronary blood flow decreases abruptly after a thrombotic occlusion of a coronary artery previously affected by atherosclerosis. Sialic acid (SA) is attached to non reducing residues of the carbohydrate chains of glycoproteins and glycolipids. An elevation in serum TSA , LBSA and PBSA concentrations has been observed in a number of pathological conditions .The aim of the study was to determine the serum TSA and its LBSA and PBSA in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods: Serum TSA , LBSA and PBSA concentrations were evaluated by UV/VIS spectrophotometry in (100) apparently healthy individuals and ( 100 ) newly diagnosed AMI patients . Results: The mean levels of serum TSA , LBSA and PBSA in AMI patients were significantly higher ( P < 0.05 ) than those of apparently healthy individuals . Conclusion: The results indicate that the serum values of TSA, LBSA and PBSA appeared to be of a value in diagnosis of AMI . Key wards: AMI , TSA , LBSA , PBSA Abstract

Assessment of Periodontal Parameters and Serum Markers in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction
Background: Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in developed countries and is a disease that has many contributing factors. Periodontal disease is one of the factors contributing to the progression of the disease. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of periodontal disease on the incidence of acute myocardial infarction. Methods: In this case-control study, 60 su...

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 کاملStudy of Serum Total Sialic Acid Level and Its Correlation with Atherogenic Index in Cases of Acute Myocardial Infarction
Sialic acid, an acylated derivative of nine carbon sugar neuraminic acid. Serum total sialic acid is a cardiovascular risk factor and associated with increased cardiovascular mortality. The present study was planned to explore the role of serum total sialic acid levels and its correlation with atherogenic index in acute myocardial infarction. It was a case controlled study conducted in the Depa...

Objective: Heparin and enoxaparin possess anti-inflammatory properties. We compared the effects of these drugs on inflammatory biomarkers in patients with ST-segment Elevated Myocardial Infarction (STEMI). Method: Thirty four patients with STEMI randomly separated in two groups and received standard doses of heparin and enoxaparin. The serum concentration of Serum Amyloid A (SAA), C-Reactive Pr...
