A precision medicine approach to stress testing using metabolomics and microribonucleic acids.

Both transcriptomics and metabolomics hold promise for identifying acute coronary syndrome (ACS) but they have not been used in combination, nor have dynamic changes in levels been assessed as a diagnostic tool. We assessed integrated analysis of peripheral blood miRNA and metabolite analytes to distinguish patients with myocardial ischemia on cardiac stress testing. We isolated and quantified miRNA and metabolites before and after stress testing from seven patients with myocardial ischemia and 1:1 matched controls.
