Abstract

Objective:To study the relation between plasma homocysteine(Hcy) and acute coronary syndrome(ACS). Method:Sixty-four ACS patients were enrolled as ACS group.After effective therapy,these 64 patients were as stable coronary heart disease(CHD) group,and 64 normals were as control group.The plasma levels of Hcy and C-reactive protein(CRP) were measured in all subjects. Result:①Hcy level in ACS group was significantly higher than that in control group.②Hcy level in ACS group was significantly higher than that in stable CHD group.③CRP level in ACS group was significantly higher than that in control group.④Hcy level in ACS group was slightly higher than that in control group,but no significant difference. Conclusion:Elevated plasma Hcy level is associated with genesis of ACS.Plasma Hcy level is more sensitive than CRP in prediction on unstability of atherosclerosis.
