Association between serum netrin-1, netrin-4 and risk of the acute coronary syndrome in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus-A pilot study

The present study was done to assess the diagnostic utility of serum netrin-1 and netrin-4 for recognising the acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients. Forty-two T2DM patients with ACS (Cases) and forty-two T2DM patients without ACS (Controls) were compared. Cases h...

Description
Summary:The present study was done to assess the diagnostic utility of serum netrin-1 and netrin-4 for recognising the acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients. Forty-two T2DM patients with ACS (Cases) and forty-two T2DM patients without ACS (Controls) were compared. Cases had lower serum netrin-1 and netrin-4 levels than controls and were negatively associated with creatinine kinase-total, creatinine kinase-MB, troponin-T and H-FABP. ROC analysis showed that netrin-1 and netrin-4 had good sensitivity and specificity for ACS prediction in T2DM patients. Serum netrin-1 and netrin-4 levels might be considered complementary markers for ACS diagnosis in T2DM patients.
