Corelation Between Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) And Troponin-I (cTn-I) in ST- Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) and Non ST-Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome (NSTEACS)
Background: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is due to plaque rupture or erosion. Plaque rupture or erosion occurs because of the extra-cellular matrix destruction by an MMP (matrix metalloproteinase). Troponin I (cTn-I) is a biomarker that will increase in ACS with myocardial necrosis. Objective: To d...
