ABSTRACT
UNLABELLED The purpose of the study is the predictive value of determination of Tr-T in diagnosis of unstable angina. METHODS:
35 pts (24 male, 11 female, mean age 53.4 +/- 5 years) were studied. Group A 20 pts (15 male, 5 female, mean age 50 +/- 6 years) with unstable angina. Group B 15 pts (9 male, 6 female, mean age 56.4 +/- 4 years) with stable anginaRESULTS:
pts with stable angina (group B) had normal value of CPK-MB, SGOT, LDH, Tr-T. Eight pts with unstable angina (group A) had increased value of Tr-T with normal value of CPK-MB, SGOT, LDH. In conclusion the determination of Tr-T is helpful in diagnosis of unstable angina and it may be useful in the prognosis of these pts.
