Perforin‐Mediated Cytotoxicity in non‐ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction
AbstractThe aim of this investigation was to examine the role of perforin (P)‐mediated cytotoxicity in the dynamics of tissue damage in patients with non‐ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) treated with anti‐ischaemic drugs. We enrolled 48 patients with NSTEMI in this study [age, 71.5 years; 61.5/76 (median, 25th/75th percentiles)]. The

Non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction after a wasp sting
We report a case of a 56-year-old woman with loss of conscious transferred to the cardiology unit where non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction was diagnosed. The patient reported a wasp sting a few minutes before the accident. The cardiac troponin level was high and confirmed damage of the heart muscle.

Fractional flow reserve versus angiography in guiding management to optimize outcomes in non–ST-elevation myocardial infarction (FAMOUS-NSTEMI): rationale and design of a randomized controlled clinical trial [PDF]
<p>Background: In patients with acute non–ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), coronary arteriography is usually recommended; but visual interpretation of the angiogram is subjective.

A Multi-marker Model for Predicting Decompensated Heart Failure in Patients with Prior Acute Myocardial Infarction [PDF]
The aim of the study was to assess the prognostic value of determining the plasma concentration of NT-proBNP and ST2 in the patients with decompensated HF and prior acute myocardial infarction and their combination in this category of patients.Materials ...

Non-ST elevation myocardial infarction secondary to carbon monoxide intoxication
Carbon monoxide poisoning has been documented in literature to cause severe neurological and tissue toxicity within the body. However, cardiotoxicity is often overlooked, but not uncommon.
