Inferior ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction Associated with Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) is usually characterized by transient left ventricular apical ballooning. Due to the clinical symptoms which include chest pain, electrocardiographic changes, and elevated myocardial markers, Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is ...

A Feature Selection for Detection of Non ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction [PDF]
A feature selection (FS) process of biomarkers for detecting Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) for Non ST Elevation patients (NSTEMI) is presented. FS has been applied by a retrospective analysis of biomarkers — high sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT), heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (H-FABP), creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB), myoglobin, GPBB ...

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-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.

Cardiac troponins in intensive care
The cardiac troponins are integral components of the myofibrillary apparatus and they regulate muscle contraction. The measurement of cardiac troponins has replaced other biomarkers for the specific detection of myocardial necrosis and for the diagnosis ...

A Case of Acute Myocardial Injury – MINOCA or Myocarditis?
Myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) has been defined as clinical presentation of an acute coronary syndrome with laboratory evidence of myocardial necrosis, but with coronary stenosis of less than 50% on coronary ...

Cardiac troponins: from myocardial infarction to chronic disease. [PDF]
Elucidation of the physiologically distinct subunits of troponin in 1973 greatly facilitated our understanding of cardiac contraction. Although troponins are expressed in both skeletal and cardiac muscle, there are isoforms of troponin I/T expressed ...

Non-ST elevation myocardial infarction? Intervene! [PDF]
The GRACE score, derived from the Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events, is an easily applicable and validated tool for triage decision making in patients after non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) [1, 2]. In short, if patients with NSTEMI are admitted with a low GRACE score, a less aggressive diagnostic approach can be followed than in ...
