C-reactive protein as a marker for acute coronary syndromes
Background For several years, acute coronary syndromes have been perceived as causing the most hospital admissions, and even hospital mortality. The syndrome of unstable angina frequently progresses to acute myocardial infarction but its pathogenesis is poorly understood, and prognosis determination...

description | Background For several years, acute coronary syndromes have been perceived as causing the most hospital admissions, and even hospital mortality. The syndrome of unstable angina frequently progresses to acute myocardial infarction but its pathogenesis is poorly understood, and prognosis determination is still problematic. We tested the hypothesis that measurement of the C-reactive protein in patients admitted for chest pain could be a marker for acute coronary syndromes. Methods and Results We studied 110 patients admitted with suspected ischaemic heart disease, but without elevated serum creatine-kinase levels at the time of hospital admission. Patients were subsequently divided into two groups based on their final diagnosis: group 1 comprised patients with unstable angina; group 2 patients with acute myocardial infarction. We measured the C-reactive protein at the time of hospital admission. The concentration of C-reactive protein was elevated in 59% of the patients with a final diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction, and in 5% of the patients with a final diagnosis of unstable angina, (P |
