The introduction of high-sensitivity troponin (hsTn) assays has reduced the diagnosis of unstable angina (UA) in favor of non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) in the context of non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTEACS).

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.

ST2 in Stable and Unstable Ischemic Heart Diseases [PDF]
Circulating suppression of tumorigenicity 2 (ST2) predicts cardiovascular outcomes and mortality in ischemic heart disease (IHD). ST2 does not correlate with traditional risk indicators as closely as N-terminal pro–brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP ...
