Do serial determinations of serum glutamic oxalacetic transaminase (SGO-T) levels have diagnostic and prognostic significance in patients hospitalized with chest pain suggestive of acute myocardial infarction?
Serial determinations of SGO-T levels provide diagnostic and prognostic value in patients presenting with chest pain suggestive of acute myocardial infarction.
