    Abstract:

    Aim To explore the prognostic value of measurements of Troponin T(TnT),high sensitive C-reactive protein(hs-CRP),and B-type natriuretic peptide(BNP)in patients with non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome(ACS).Methods Levels of serum TnT,hs-CRP,and BNP were measured among 145 ACS patients verified by coronary angiography.Patients with ACS were followed up 12 months.The end point was cardiac events including new or recurrent myocardial infarction(MI)and cardiac death.Results The multivariate Logistic regression mode analysis revealed that TnT,hs-CRP,and BNP were independent long-term prognostic markers in patients with non-ST elevation ACS.The number of elevated biomarkers remained a significant predictor of the composite endpoint after adjustment for known clinical predictors.Conclusions Measurements of TnT,hs-CRP,and BNP had practical significance in evaluating the long-term outcome of non-ST elevation ACS.
