Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) is a group of clinical syndrome with coronary atherosclerotic plaque rupture or invasion, secondary incomplete occasional thrombosis the pathological basis, including acute ST segment elevated myocardial infarction , non-ST raised and unstable angina are major disease that threatens human health. The early discovery ACS, treatment great significance. With developme...

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Troponins are specific biomarkers of myocardial injury and are implicated in the diagnosis and prognosis of patients with acute coronary syndrome. Our purpose was to determine the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with troponin elevation who are not diagnosed with acute coronary syndrome. METHODS A total of 1032 patients with an emergency room trop...

Background: The smokers who use supportive programs have a greater chance to quit smoking. Smoking cessation recommendation is one of the most important prevention and treatment methods mentioned in care guidelines provided for patients with acute coronary syndrome. Aim: The main objective of this study is to determine the effects of training-counseling programs on smoking cessation in patients...

Background and Objectives:  The aim of this study was to survey the relationship between the level of  creatinine,cardiac troponins serum and the function of  the left ventricle in patients with  kidney insufficiency,without acute coronary syndrome. Materialsand Methods:The sample  was150 patients with nondialysis chronic kidney disease without  acute  coronary  syndrome,  hospitalized  at  I...

the acute coronary syndrome due to the left main coronary artery (lmca) thrombosis is a clinically rare and catastrophic event.   we describe a young man ( smoker, alcoholic, and drug abuser) with a history of recent surgery and typical chest pain who had non-occlusive lmca thrombosis in coronary angiography. the thrombosis was successfully treated with two 180 µ/kg intracoronary boluses of ept...

We present a case of Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy (TC) which is non ischemic cardiomyopathy. It stress related and also known as broken heart syndrome. The patient presented to our emergency department with symptoms chest pain breathlessness. was diagnosed acute coronary syndrome various tests including ECG, Screening ECHO, Coronary CT Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) were done before arriving at t...

conclusions the at1r a1166c polymorphism appeared not to be associated with the presence of acs in the population studied. background there are very limited data for iranian populations on the predisposing genetic factors for acute coronary syndrome (acs). results there was no statistical difference in the genotype frequency of patients and healthy subjects with regard to age and gender (p > 0....

conclusions according to the results, there were no significant and meaningful differences comparing acs and csa groups of patients by ecds using three indicators of stenosis, plaque morphology and imt as indicators of atherosclerosis. results also display that patients with acs had more stenosis, more plaque and thicker intima–media, but these differences were not statistically significant (p ...
