Key result
Patients with acute myocardial infarction had significantly higher mean levels of AST (296.02 vs 25.50 IU/L) and troponin I (57.34 vs 0.31 ng/ml) compared to healthy controls.
Why the study?
Are levels of AST and troponin I elevated in patients with acute myocardial infarction compared to healthy controls?
Case-Control (n=100)
Are levels of AST and troponin I elevated in patients with acute myocardial infarction compared to healthy controls?
AST and troponin I levels are significantly elevated in patients with acute myocardial infarction compared to healthy controls.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Supports troponin I and AST as diagnostic aids in suspected MI; leaves open incremental value over clinical assessment in prospective cohorts.

Prabodh et al. (2012) conducted a case-control in Acute myocardial infarction (n=100). Acute myocardial infarction vs. Healthy controls was evaluated on Mean levels of AST and troponin I. Patients with acute myocardial infarction had significantly higher mean levels of AST (296.02 vs 25.50 IU/L) and troponin I (57.34 vs 0.31 ng/ml) compared to healthy controls.
