Significance detecting hscTnT in patients with non ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome / 心血管康复医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective: To study change of serum high sensitive cardiac troponin T (hscTnT) concentration in coronary circulation of patients with non ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS). Methods: The subjects were all selected from our hospital, including 46 NSTE-ACS patients （NSTE-ACS group）, 42 patients with stable angina pectoris (SAP group) and 30 cases with negative coronary angiography results（healthy control group）The hscTnT concentrations in coronary venous sinus, coronary artery (CA) and peripheral serum were measured in three groups respectively. The results were compared and analyzed. Results: Compared with healthy control group, the hscTnT concentrations in coronary venous sinus, CA and peripheral venous serum all significantly increased in NSTE-ACS group and SAP group, P<0.01 all. Compared with hscTnT levels in CA and peripheral venous serum, there was significant increase in coronary venous sinus [(0.9657±0.5863) μg/L vs. (0.9562±0.7853) μg/L vs. (1.3018±1.1024) μg/L, P<0.05] in NSTE-ACS group. Conclusion: The serum hscTnT concentrations in peripheral vein, coronary artery and coronary venous sinus all significantly increase in NSTE-ACS patients, especially in coronary venous sinus.
