New oxidative stress factors to assess the development of myocardial infarction

Abstract

Cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of morbidity and mortality in the general population and in a fairly large percentage is due to atherosclerosis of blood vessels. The purpose of this dissertation is to study two specific indicators: a) Asymmetric Dimethylarginine (ADMA, AsymmetricDimethylarginine) and b) Symmetric Dimethylarginine (SDMA, Symmetric Dimethylarginine) and their association with the occurrence of myocardial infarction. According to international literature (5-8), particularly elevated levels of these markers have been observed in patients with acute myocardial infarction and there seems to be a direct correlation of these markers with the prognosis and progression of myocardial infarction. The analysis of the samples to be tested will correlate the levels of these two indicators with socio-demographic and somatometric characteristics of patients which may affect the development of myocardial infarction. A total of 66 patients (18 women, 48 men) were studied ...
