Atherosclerosis, 09/01/09
Nunez J et al. – Risk stratification of patients with acute chest pain, non–diagnostic electrocardiogram and normal troponin (ACPneg) remains a challenge, partly because no standardized set of biomarkers with prognostic ability has been identified in this population. Lymphopenia has been associated with atherosclerosis progression and adverse outcomes in cardiovascular diseases; although its prognostic value in ACPneg is unknown...In patients with ACPneg, low lymphocytes count was associated with an increased risk for developing the combined endpoint of death or MI.
