Serum sialic acid and its lipid and protein bounds as possible biomarkers of acute myocardial infarction in erbil
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 ...
متن کاملRapid Spontaneous Coronary Artery Reperfusion Following Severe Bradycardia During Exercise Tolerance Test: A Rare Case Report
The acute occlusion of a coronary artery without the evidence of myocardial infarction might immediately affect both the diagnosis and treatment of coronary artery disease. We present the case with a sudden occlusion of the left main coronary artery without typical chest pain following an exercise tolerance test and rapid spontaneous reperfusion of the left main coronary artery.
متن کاملUnexpected Coronary Thrombosis Induced by Antiphospholipid Syndrome (hughes Syndrome): Case Report
UNEXPECTED CORONARY THROMBOSIS INDUCED BY ANTIPHOSPHOLIPID SYNDROME (HUGHES SYNDROME) CASE REPORT (Abstract): Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), one of the most common states of acquired hypercoagulability, is diagnosed by the persistent presence of antiphospholipid antibodies and recurrent episodes of vascular thrombosis. We present the case of a 39-year-old man late-presenting for cardiac rehab...
متن کاملRuptured atheromatous plaques in saphenous vein coronary artery bypass grafts: a mechanism of acute, thrombotic, late graft occlusion.
Although early occlusion of saphenous vein coronary artery bypass grafts is usually thrombotic, late occlusion is most often a result of progressive intimal fibromuscular proliferation or atheroma formation in the implanted vain. We describe another mechanism of late graft occlusion: atheromatous plaque rupture with superimposed occlusive thrombosis. Four men, ages 48-67 years underwent repeat ...
متن کاملNarrative review: alternative causes for elevated cardiac troponin levels when acute coronary syndromes are excluded.
Current guidelines for the diagnosis of non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction are largely based on an elevated troponin level. While this rapid and sensitive blood test is certainly valuable in the appropriate setting, its widespread use in a variety of clinical scenarios may lead to the detection of troponin elevation in the absence of thrombotic acute coronary syndromes. Many disease...
