Comparison of pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A, troponin and creatine kinase-MB levels in acute coronary syndrome
Background: Early diagnosis and proper treatment of patient with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and ischemic heart disease are important in determining prognosis, preventing adverse effects, and may even save lives. In this study, the level of pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) in ACS patients was compared with the control group, in addition to cardiac Troponin (cTn) and creatine kin...
متن کاملPregnancy-associated plasma protein A in pregnancy-related gynaecologic emergency.
Serum concentrations of pregnancy-associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A) were measured in patients with pregnancy-related gynaecologic emergencies including ectopic pregnancy (n = 124) and intrauterine abortion (n = 40). The results were compared with those in normal pregnancy (n = 136) and non-pregnant women (n = 460). In ectopic pregnancy and intrauterine abortion, the PAPP-A levels were lower ...
متن کاملRadioimmunoassay for pregnancy-associated plasma protein A.
A specific and highly sensitive radioimmunoassay for determination of pregnancy-associated plasma protein A in human serum is described. The minimum detection limit for this protein was 2.9 micrograms/L. The within- and between-assay coefficients of variation were 4.0 and 4.5%, respectively. The circulating protein was detected within 32 days of conception in eight normal pregnancies and within...

study more than a third of the abused women had been admitted five times or more. The greater differences in admissions in the ages over 30 might be related to ongoing domestic violence. Several studies indicate that the risk ofbeing the victim of wife beating is most pronounced in the fourth decade of life.' 24 The abused woman, in her exposed and desolate situation, does not always seek medic...
متن کاملPregnancy-associated plasma protein-E (PAPP-E).
A full-length cDNA encoding a novel human protein was cloned from placenta cDNA. The corresponding 1542 amino acid protein sequence was termed 'pregnancy-associated plasma protein-E' (PAPP-E) as it shows a 62% homology to the human pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) that is a diagnostic marker for trisomies, especially Down syndrome. The conserved domain structure contains five moti...
