Dr. Ursula Sampson

Abstract :

<p>&nbsp;Aim: The purpose of this study is to investigate the diagnostic and prognostic value of certain acute phase proteins in serum and plasma of cases of acute myocardial infarction. Myocardial infarction is the catastrophic frequently fatal form of ischemic heart disease that results from precipitous reduction or arrest of a significant portion of the coronary flow. Design/Methods: Acute myocardial infarction was studied in three groups depends on with or without associated complications. Results: in all three groups, mean serum levels of Alpha1 Antitrypsin, Alpha1 Acid Glycoprotein, Ceruloplasmin and Fiinogen on seventh day is higher than the first and fifteenth day mean. Discussion: The serum levels of Alpha1 Antitrypsin, Alpha1 Acid Glycoprotein, Ceruloplasmin and Fiinogen levels were significantly increased in seventh day compared with other previous days Conclusions: Alpha1 Antitrypsin, Alpha1 Acid Glycoprotein, Ceruloplasmin and Fiinogen is an useful index, not only in the diagnosis and prognosis, but also in some critical situations of taking some important decision.</p>
