Risk stratification before thrombolytic therapy in patients with acute myocardial infarction

TL;DR: This study evaluated the prognostic utility of several risk factors in the 3,339 patients enrolled in Phase II of the Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) trial and found that eight risk factors can be easily remembered and assessed in patients with myocardial infarction who are candidates for thrombectomy therapy and can be used to estimate short-term mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term prognostic value of neopterin: a novel marker of monocyte activation in patients with acute coronary syndrome.

TL;DR: Increased monocyte activation detected by an elevated plasma neopterin level identifies patients at long-term risk of death or recurrent acute coronary events after ACS and intensive statin therapy significantly attenuates the risk of recurrent events among patients with an elevated neopterIn level.
