TL;DR: At levels encountered in an urban environment, inhalation of dilute diesel exhaust impairs 2 important and complementary aspects of vascular function in humans: the regulation of vascular tone and endogenous fibrinolysis.

TL;DR: Findings provide evidence of a direct link between endogenous fibrinolysis, endothelial dysfunction, and atherothrombosis in the coronary circulation and may explain the greater efficacy of thrombolytic therapy for myocardial infarction in cigarette smokers.

TL;DR: The implementation of an hs-cTnI assay was evaluated in consecutive patients who had been admitted to the hospitals' emergency departments with suspected acute coronary syndrome and its findings question whether the diagnostic threshold for myocardial infarction should be based on the 99th centile derived from a normal reference population.

TL;DR: It is found that despite an excess in noncardiovascular death, patients with type 2 myocardial infarction or myocardia injury have a similar crude rate of major adverse cardiovascular events as those with type 1Myocardial Infarction.

TL;DR: NIRS imaging of non-obstructive territories in patients undergoing cardiac catheterisation and possible percutaneous coronary intervention was safe and can aid in identifying patients and segments at higher risk for subsequent NC-MACE.
