Plasma TMAO (Trimethylamine N-oxide) as a Predictive Marker in Coronary Disease Patients

April 2, 2019 updated by: Robert Olek, Gdansk University of Physical Education and Sport

The primary aim of the current research project is to determine whether the TMAO concentration in the blood can serve as a prognostic indicator of myocardial infarction.

The hypothesis is that in patients with recent myocardial infarction, TMAO concentration in blood is higher than in patients undergoing scheduled coronarography.

Completed

Conditions

Detailed Description

To the study will be included volunteers - patients with stable angina (SA), who were scheduled for conventional coronary angiography, and patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) who were admitted to the hospital with chest pain and undergoing coronography surgery. Blood samples will be taken from volunteers once - before the coronography surgery by qualified medical personnel.
