Our objectives were to evaluate the prognostic value of several biomarkers in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) through an evaluation of the 30-day clinical outcomes. Multiple biomarkers have emerged as potentially useful in risk stratification of ACS. Specifically, markers of vascular inflammation and oxidative stress might be helpful in the determination of clinical outcomes. We evaluated patients presenting with chest pain. ACS was defined by symptoms of cardiac ischemia plus electrocardiographic changes or positive troponin I. Levels of serum troponin I, high sensitivity C-reactive protein, serum choline, and free F(2)-isoprostane were obtained. Patients were followed up for 30 days (n = 108) with determination of nonfatal myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, need for revascularization, and death. Of the 108 patients, 26 had a cardiac event. Free F(2)-isoprostane and choline levels (but not high-sensitivity C-reactive protein levels) predicted 30-day cardiac events. To determine the value of choline and F(2)-isoprostane levels in predicting 30-day cardiac events, receiver operating curves were generated. The optimal cutoff point of these markers was a serum F(2)-isoprostane level of 124.5 pg/ml (r = 0.82) and a serum choline level of 30.5 mumol/L (r = 0.76). F(2)-isoprostane and choline had a positive predictive value of 57% and 44% and a negative predictive value of 90% and 89%, respectively. In conclusion, serum choline and free F(2)-isoprostane are predictors of cardiac events in ACS. A model that includes an array of biomarkers, including troponin, choline, and free F(2)-isoprostane, might be useful in predicting patients at greater risk of future events in ACS. |
