Impact of Age on Risk Factors and Clinical Manifestations of Acute Coronary Syndrome: Observations From the Coronary Care Unit of Sulaimani, Iraq [PDF]

Hospital Practices and Research, 2020
Background: ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI ) are common types of acute coronary syndrome which are associated with the risk factors of age, obesity, hypertension, and diabetes.

Prediction of totally occluded culprit artery from presenting electrocardiogram in acute coronary syndrome

Heart India, 2016
Background: Revascularization strategy in acute coronary syndrome is based on the ST segment deviation in the presenting ECG. ST segment elevation denotes total occlusion of culprit vessel and mandates early revascularization.

The Biochemical Aspects of a Non–ST-Segment Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome

Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2012
The clinical course of an acute coronary syndrome can vary from relatively benign to potentially fatal. The biomarkers of myocardial necrosis relate to the amount of myocardial damage and are closely linked to a patient's prognosis. They are measured to help guide management decisions. Recent interest in myocardial neurohumoral

The effect of interleukin-1 receptor antagonist therapy on markers of inflammation in non-ST elevation acute coronary syndromes:the MRC-ILA Heart Study [PDF]

, 2014
AIMS: Acute coronary syndromes (ACSs) are driven by inflammation within coronary plaque. Interleukin-1 (IL-1) has an established role in atherogenesis and the vessel-response to injury. ACS patients have raised serum markers of inflammation.

Short‐Term Exposure to Fine Particulate Matter Air Pollution Is Preferentially Associated With the Risk of ST‐Segment Elevation Acute Coronary Events

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2015
Background Air pollution is associated with greater cardiovascular event risk, but the types of events and specific persons at risk remain unknown. This analysis evaluates effects of short‐term exposure to fine particulate matter air pollution with risk ...

Non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndromes: an algorithm for decision [PDF]

European Heart Journal, 2007
We have read with great interest the report1 of the Task Force concerning the guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndromes (NST-ACS). We would like to compliment the Task Force members for this excellent work, updating the previous ESC guidelines concerning that matter.
