Defining a role for novel biomarkers in acute coronary syndromes.
BACKGROUND Biomarkers play a pivotal role in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with cardiovascular disease. Active investigation has brought forward an increasingly large number of novel candidate markers; however, few of these markers have yet to be incorporated into routine clinical use. CONTENT This review discusses biomarkers currently used in the setting of acute coronary syndromes...
متن کاملInflammatory Biomarkers in Acute Coronary Syndromes
Acute coronary syndromes (ACS) are multifactorial and occur in response to inflammation, plaque rupture and subsequent thrombosis, progressive mechanical obstruction, and dynamic obstruction.1 Patients with ACS span a large spectrum of risk that progresses from unstable angina (UA) to non–STelevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) to ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). ECG findings and ...
متن کاملPrognostic value of C-Reactive Protein in Acute Coronary Syndromes
Introduction: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is among the most common, serious, chronic and life- threatening illnesses in the world. CAD represents a spectrum of conditions, with acute myocardial infarction at one end of it and silent ischemia at the other. There is growing evidence on importance of prognosis of C- reactive protein (CPR) in unstable angina and this protein is a maker of an adve...
متن کاملBiomarkers of platelet activation in acute coronary syndromes.
The most convincing evidence for the participation of platelets in arterial thrombosis in humans comes from studies of platelet activation in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) and from trials of antiplatelet drugs. Both strongly support the concept that repeated episodes of platelet activation over the thrombogenic surface of a vulnerable plaque may contribute to the risk of death fr...
