Prognostic role of aldosterone in patients with acute coronary syndrome: short and medium term follow-up. [PDF]
AIMS: Different studies have shown a correlation between aldosterone, atherosclerosis and ischemia in the past decade. Evidence exists for the relationship between high levels of aldosterone and augmented risk of cardiovascular diseases, such as ...

Case Report: ST-Segment Elevation in a Man With Acute Pericarditis
Background: Acute pericarditis is a rapid inflammatory condition of the pericardium with both infectious and non-infectious etiology. Most acute pericarditis is self-limited, with a small portion evolving rapidly.

Stable coronary syndromes: pathophysiology, diagnostic advances and therapeutic need [PDF]
The diagnostic management of patients with angina pectoris typically centres on the detection of obstructive epicardial CAD, which aligns with evidence-based treatment options that include medical therapy and myocardial revascularisation.

Clinical criteria replenish high-sensitive troponin and inflammatory markers in the stratification of patients with suspected acute coronary syndrome. [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: In patients with suspected acute coronary syndrome (ACS), rapid triage is essential. The aim of this study was to establish a tool for risk prediction of 30-day cardiac events (CE) on admission.

Probabilistic classification of acute myocardial infarction from multiple cardiac markers [PDF]
Logistic regression and Gaussian mixture model (GMM) classifiers have been trained to estimate the probability of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in patients based upon the concentrations of a panel of cardiac markers.

High Sensitive C-Reactive Protein Serum Levels in Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome
Background: Although high sensitive C-reactive protein (HS CRP) is a predictive factor for acute coronary syndrome, there is controversy about its predictive power. Therefore, it is known as a novel risk factor for coronary artery diseases.
