| Popis: | Objective: Gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) may be considered as a biomarker of “oxidative stress” associated with glutathione metabolism and a possible “proatherogenic” marker because of its indirect relationship with the biochemical steps in the oxidation of low density lipoprotein cholesterol. Serum inorganic phosphorus (P) level is also suggested as an independent risk factor for cardiac events and mortality in the long term. We aimed to observe the relationship of serum GGT, calcium (Ca), and P levels with 1 months’ mortality after myocardial infarction.Methods: Our retrospective study included 200 patients (124 men and 76 women) with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) who were admitted to our hospital. We excluded subjects with severe systemic illness, hepatobiliary disease, alcohol consumption, chronic metabolic bone disease, malignancy, parathyroid disease, and patients who had a glomerular filtration rate (GFR) |
