Background: To study the role of inflammatory markers like hs-CRP and S. Uric Acid as risk factors and prognostic markers in acute myocardial infarction. Methods: A total of 100 cases admitted in ICU/CCU under Department of Medicine/cardiology, NIMS Medical College & Hospital Jaipur and 100 controls who were the normal age/sex matched during study period of 15 months i.e. August 2014 to October 2015 were taken into study based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Blood samples were taken to measure hs-CRP and Uric Acid and patients were followed for 7 days in hospital. Tests of statistical significance were done using Chi-square Test, unpaired ’t’ test, fisher test. Results: Out of 100 age and sex matched cases and controls, 63% were having positive hs-CRP compared to 2% in controls (p< 0.001). Hyperuricemia was found in 23% cases compared to 4% in controls(p=0.0002). 44 patients developed different complications during follow up, out of which 40 were having positive hs-CRP (P < 0.001) and 22 were having hyperuricemia (p< 0.001). Conclusion: We found that hs-CRP and Uric Acid are risk factors for myocardial infarction and are good predictors of outcome following MI.

The arthritis-associated HLA-B*27:05 allele forms more cell surface B27 dimer and free heavy chain ligands for KIR3DL2 than HLA-B*27:09
OBJECTIVES HLA-B*27:05 is associated with AS whereas HLA-B*27:09 is not associated. We hypothesized that different interactions with KIR immune receptors could contribute to the difference in disease association between HLA-B*27:05 and HLAB*27:09. Thus, the objective of this study was to compare the formation of β2m-free heavy chain (FHC) including B27 dimers (B272) by HLA-B*27:05 and HLA-B*27:...
متن کاملInterleukin 27 could be useful in the diagnosis of tuberculous pleural effusions.
BACKGROUND The diagnosis of tuberculous pleural effusion (TBPE) has some limitations. We studied the efficacy of interleukin-27 (IL-27) in the diagnosis of TBPE. METHODS We measured IL-27, adenosine deaminase (ADA), ADA-2, interferon-gamma (IFNγ), and the ADA·IL-27 and ADA-2·IL-27 products in all the pleural effusion fluids. The diagnostic yield of IL-27 was evaluated with receiver operating ...
متن کاملIL-27-Induced Gene Expression Is Downregulated in HIV-Infected Subjects
OBJECTIVE To characterize the effect of HIV infection on IL-27-induced gene expression. DESIGN During HIV infection, cytokine expression and function become deregulated. IL-27 is an important modulator of inflammatory responses. Interestingly, IL-27 can inhibit HIV replication in T cells and monocytes, implicating IL-27 as a potential adjunct to anti-viral treatment. Our previous work demonst...
متن کاملElimination of cholesterol in macrophages and endothelial cells by the sterol 27-hydroxylase mechanism. Comparison with high density lipoprotein-mediated reverse cholesterol transport.
Cultured macrophages and endothelial cells have been reported to secrete 27-oxygenated metabolites of cholesterol. This mechanism was compared with the classical high density lipoprotein (HDL)-dependent reverse cholesterol transport. Under standard conditions, macrophage preparations had considerably higher capacity to secrete 27-hydroxycholesterol and 3beta-hydroxy-5-cholestenoic acid than had...
متن کاملDiverse and Opposing Roles of IL-27 in Immunity
IL-27 was originally thought to play a pro-inflammatory role in immunity, however it is now clear that IL-27 also exerts potent anti-inflammatory effects. Here, we discuss some of the key studies that have elucidated the diverse and apparently paradoxical roles of IL-27. While IL-27 can promote early Th1 development there is evidence of suppressive effects in later phases of Th1 responses. IL-2...
