Abstract

Objective To study the expression levels of high sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP) in patients with acute coronary syndrome(ACS).Methods 60 patients with ACS,30 patients with stable angina pectoris(SAP) and 30 healthy adults were enrolled in the study.The level of hs-CRP was assayed by particle-enhanced turbidimetric immunoassay(PETIA) and compared.Results Serum level of hs-CRP was higher in the ACS group(8.05±2.48) mg/L than that in the SAP group(2.27±0.84) mg/L(P0.05) and the control group(2.17±0.91) mg/L(P0.05) significantly.The difference between SAP group and health control had no statistical significance(P0.05).Conclusion The level of hs-CRP may play an important role in ACS,and can be used as one index of risk stratification of ACS in clinical work.
