Serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, amyloid-associated protein and N-terminal proBNP levels do not predict reversible myocardial ischaemia

Abstract

Aim: The aim of this study was to detect any relationship between serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), serum amyloid-associated protein (SAA) and N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels, and reversible myocardial ischaemia during cardiovascular exercise tests and to determine whether these biomarkers could predict transient myocardial ischaemia.
