Abstract: BACKGROUND: At present, the treatment for acute myocardial infarction has achieved great progress. Reperfusion therapy in the short term can effectively reduce recurrence rates and mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction. According to a report of a large national registry, the mortality of patients with acute coronary syndrome combined with acute heart failure is 10 times of that of patients without heart failure, and the mortality in nearly 10 years has no significant change. Therefore, people are constantly exploring indicators for acute heart failure prognosis to improve a patient’s prognosis. With the constant understanding and exploration of acute myocardial …infarction, more and more researches have focused in determining how to predict the occurrence of acute heart failure. The present study focuses on presenting the latest progress of Carbohydrate Antigen-125 (CA125) and Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) in serum of patients with acute myocardial infarction in predicting acute heart failure.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Non-invasive tests are still required to improve the holistic diagnostic approach of thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS). OBJECTIVES: We aimed to analyze the diagnostic accuracy of the decrease from rest oxygen pressure (DROP) index of transcutaneous oximetry (TcpO2) in TOS. METHODS: Seventy-six patients and 40 asymptomatic volunteers (Controls) were enrolled. In TOS-suspected patients, the arteriograms were investigated for the presence of≥75% stenosis. The area under receiver operating characteristics curve (AUC) analysis tested the ability of forearm TcpO2 during provocative maneuvers to discriminate patients from controls and, to predict a positive arteriographic findings in the 44 TOS-suspected …patients that had an arteriography. RESULTS: The media [25/75° centile] DROP values of controls and patients were -14 [-8/-22] mmHg and -22 [-12/-42] mmHg, respectively (p for Mann-Whitney<0.02). AUC analysis showed a significant ability of TcpO2 to predict the presence of subclavian arterial compression on arteriography (AUC, 0.694). CONCLUSIONS: Although time consuming, tcpO2 is independent of the observer expertise and could be useful in TOS-suspected patients to select the patients that should undergo arteriography. Show more
