Abstract

With its high morbidity and mortality, acute myocardial infarction (AMI) places a major burden on society and on individual patients. Correct, early correct diagnosis is crucial to the management of AMI. In this study, the expression of circulating miR-486 and miR-150 was investigated in AMI patients and the two miRNAs were evaluated as potential biomarkers for AMI. Plasma samples from 110 patients with AMI (65 patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and 45 patients with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI)) and 110 healthy adults were collected. Circulating levels of miR-486 and miR-150 were detected using quantitative real-time PCR in plasma samples. Results showed that the levels of miR-486 and miR-150 were significantly higher in AMI patients than in healthy controls. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses indicated that the two plasma miRNAs were of significant diagnostic value for AMI, especially NSTEMI. The combined ROC analysis revealed an AUC value of 0.771 in discriminating AMI patients from healthy controls and an AUC value of 0.845 in discriminating NSTEMI patients from healthy controls. Results indicated that the levels of circulating miR-486 and miR-150 are associated with AMI. They may be novel and powerful biomarkers for AMI, especially for NSTEMI.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 17 March 2016.
All research outputs
#18,447,592
of 22,856,968 outputs
Outputs from BMC Cardiovascular Disorders
#1,111
of 1,612 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#172,053
of 239,853 outputs
Outputs of similar age from BMC Cardiovascular Disorders
#19
of 24 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,856,968 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,612 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.9. This one is in the 17th percentile – i.e., 17% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 239,853 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 16th percentile – i.e., 16% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 24 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 4th percentile – i.e., 4% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
