“…Regardless of the cause, mortality rates and neurological prognosis remain poor. 21,22 In our study first measurements of troponin I concentration were similar in non-survivors and survivors. During cardiac arrest saving human life is the priority, pushing scientific research into the background; large prospective studies to validate different CPR strategies are almost impossible to carry out due to ethical and other considerations.…”

“…22 The authors concluded that this may be due to greater burdens of concomitant disease in the in-hospital group. It has been shown that in-hospital presentation of life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias is associated with worse prognosis than out-ofhospital.…”

“…First, to date this is the largest study focusing on low-moderate cardiac risk cPU cohort as opposed to patients with established acS. 13,15,19 the earlier studies did not always take into account either an elevated troponin value [20][21][22] or dynamic ecg changes-factors that meet automatic criteria for acS. 14 Second, the current study is derived from consecutive patients as opposed to a convenience sample 11,14,17,20 as used in previous studies thus reducing selection bias.…”

“…Predictively, studies have shown that a low CK-MB value at the time of diagnosis of AMI means a small amount of affected myocardium and therefore, the success of reperfusion therapy can be maximum, this translating into a lower rate of morbidity and mortality [24]. Clinical data from previous years' studies have shown the importance of CK-MB at admission as an independent predictor in both the short and long term [25][26][27]. Other studies have shown that not serial CK-MB values, but its increased value for a longer period (values above 124 mg/dL more than 18 h after the onset of myocardial infarction, despite the successful PCI) is correlated with subsequent cardiovascular events (reinfarctions, hospitalizations for cardiac decompensation, death) [28].…”
