We aimed to assess the clinical significance of serum levels of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (sNGAL) for predicting in-hospital outcomes in patients with ST-elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI). Patients admitted within 24 hours of developing STEMI clinical symptoms were evaluated for sNGAL on hospitalization days 1 and 12. Recurrent myocardial infarction, early post-infarction angina, acute cerebrovascular accident, and death were assessed as adverse outcomes during hospitalization.

Methods: We recruited 357 consecutive patients who were admitted to the hospital within 24 h after onset of STEMI. On the 1st and 12th-14th day after hospital admission, we measured levels of sNGAL and sCC.
Purpose: to study clinical and prognostic significance of serum neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (s-NGAL) in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).
Material And Methods: Patients with STEMI (n=85) of less than 24 hours duration admitted to the Kemerovo Cardiology Dispensary were included in the study. s-NGAL levels (ng/ml) were measured on day 1 and 12 of hospital stay by ELISA using commercial kit.
Aim: to assess value for inhospital and 1 year prognosis of unfavorable course of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) of blood serum galectin and markers of renal dysfunction (RD).
Material And Methods: Standard laboratory and instrumental examination, calculation of glomerular filtration rate using MDRD formula and by cystatin C level, determination of galectin in blood serum were carried out in 128 patients with STEMI. According to GFR by cystatin C level on day 12 of STEMI patients were divided into 2 groups - with normal renal function (GFR more or equal 60 ml/min/1.
Purpose: To assess significance of urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) for predicting hospital complications in subjects with ischemic heart disease (IHD) after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).
Materials And Methods: The study included 720 subjects who underwent CABG between 03/2011 and 04/2012. Blood serum creatinine level, glomerular filtration rate (GFR) (MDRD formula) and NGAL concentration were measured before and on day 7 after CABG.
Aim: To evaluate the prognostic impact of chronic kidney disease (CKD) during hospital stay in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and to specify factors showing a negative impact of CKD.
Subjects And Methods: 954 patients with STEMI were examined. The diagnosis of CKD was verified in 338 (35.
This study aimed to evaluate the association between serum galectin levels and renal dysfunction in relation to in-hospital prognosis and unfavorable prognosis 1 year after ST-elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI). Patients were assigned to two groups according to the cystatin C-based estimate of GFR on day 12 after STEMI: (1) STEMI patients with normal renal function (GFR based on cystatin C levels = 60 mL/min/1.73 m(2)) and (2) those with renal dysfunction (RD) (GFR based on cystatin C levels <60 mL/min/1.

Material And Methods: We enrolled in this register study 954 patients (65% men, 35% women, mean age 63.4 [62.
Background: This investigation was aimed at assessing the clinical significance of microalbuminuria (MA) in predicting in-hospital adverse outcomes amongst the patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) who have undergone coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery.
Methods: We recruited 720 consecutive Caucasian (Russian) patients who underwent CABG surgery during 2011-2012.
Results: Patients with renal dysfunction (RD) and without type 2 DM had significantly higher median serum creatinine seven days after CABG surgery compared to patients without RD and type 2 DM.
Unlabelled: PURPOSE. To elucidate association of renal dysfunction (RD) with unfavorable outcomes of in-hospital and long-term (1 year) treatment stages of patients with ST-elevation (STE) myocardial infarction (M) and concomitant diabetes mellitus (DM).
Material And Methods: We enrolled in this register study 954 patients (65% men, 35% women, mean age 63.
Background: This study has been aimed to assess clinical significance of cystatin C in the prognosis of a risk of hospital complications among the patients with coronary artery disease CAD who have undergone coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG).
Methods: We have recruited 719 consecutive Caucasian (Russian) patients who underwent CABG in 2011-2012.
Results: No statistically significant differences in the serum creatinine concentration (sCr) and glomerular filtration rate before and seven days after the surgery have been found among the patients belonging to different EuroSCORE risk groups.
