1.Clinical comparison of the sensitivity and specificity of cardiac troponin I and cardiac troponin T and creatine kinase MB for the early diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction
Clinical Medicine of China 1999;0(02):-
Objective To observe the application value of cardiac troponin I (cTnI),cardiac troponin T (cTnT) and creatine kinase MB (CK MB) for the early diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI).Methods The same serum sample was measured to detect the indexes of cTnI,cTnT and CK MB levels in 60 patients with AMI and 40 patients with UA.Comparison between AMI and UA was performed and all the indexes were analysed contrastively.Results The sensitivity of cTnI and cTnT was higher than that of CK MB,and their positive rates were 63.3%,46.7% and 18.3% respectively (P0.05) and the specificity of the three indexes were almost the same without significant difference.Conclusion cTnI and cTnT,as specific markers of cardiac damage,are more sensitive and specific in the early diagnosis of AMI.As a convenient,swift and accurate measurement method,cTnI has significant clinical value.

Objective To analyze the clinical effect of brevisapine injection on high sensitivity C-reaction protein level in the treatment of acute myocardial infarction.Methods The patients were randomly divided into treatment group(n=80)and control group(n=80).Both groups were treated with routine midication,but treatment group were given intravenous drip of 100 mg brevisapine once a day.for 14 days.80 paients who came for diagnosis were selected for healthy control group.The selqlm high sensitivity C-reaction protein levels were measured at 2 d,7 d,and 14 d by ELLSA in treatment group,control group and healthy control group.Mortality,heart function status (Killip class),revaseularization and clinical adverse cardic events including postinfartion angina,new arrhythmia,reinfarction and bleeding complication at 4 weeks were observed.Results Treatment group had a significantly high level of hs-CRP compared with healthy subjects[(6.37±1.43)vs.(2.17±1.12)mmol/L,P<0.01]at the second day.The serum hs-CRP content of treatment group was obviously lower than that of control group(3.21±1.31)and(2.25±0.34)mmol/L vs.(5.87±1.16)、(3.97±1.21)mmol/L,(P<0.01)]on the 7th,14th days;The revascularization rate of treatment group was obviously higher than that of control group[62.50%(50/80)vs.51.25% (45/80),P <0.01];There was no difference between the two groups in mortality(3.75% vs.4.10%,P >0.05).No difference was found in the rate of bleeding between the two groups(6.25% vs.7.50%,P >0.05);Patients with Killip class<Ⅱ of treatment group was obviously higher than that of control group (83.75% vs 61.25%,P < 0.05 );Clinical adverse cardic events rates at 4 weeks of treatment group were obviously lower than those of control group (P < 0.01 ).No obvious adverse reactions related to the treatment group were observed.Condusion The serum hs-CRP level is in close relation with acute myocardial infarction,which is the risk factor.It is effective and safe of brevisapine injection in the treatment of acute myocardial infarction.The effects of brevisapine on acute myocardial infarction might be involved in decreasing the level of hs-CRP and inhibiting the vascular inflammatory reaction.
