Role of Glycation and Inflammation in Acute Ischemic Heart Disease (AGLIANICO)

February 15, 2024 updated by: GEK Srl

Action of Glycation and Inflammation in Operative Ischemic Heart Disease

This study requires the consecutive enrollment of 60 patients following the first event of acute myocardial infarction, evaluating B-Cell Activating Factor (BAFF) and methylglyoxal (MGO) levels in the acute setting (pre-reperfusion) and 3 months after reperfusion.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This study requires the consecutive enrollment of 60 patients at admission for first acute myocardial infarction. At enrollment, before reperfusion, a blood sample is obtained to measure B-Cell Activating Factor (BAFF) and methylglyoxal (MGO) levels in the acute setting. This measure is then repeated at follow-up visit 3 months after reperfusion. The aim of the study is to identify specific subsets of patients and evaluate biomarkers variations.
