Circulating high-mobility group box 1 and cardiovascular mortality in unstable angina and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction

Highlights ► HMGB1 is a damage-associated molecular pattern molecule. ► We evaluated the prognostic value of HMGB1 on admission in 258 UA/NSTEMI patients. ► Increased HMGB1 was significantly associated with cardiovascular mortality rate. ► Increased HMGB1 was an independent predictor of cardiovascul...

Description
Summary:Highlights ► HMGB1 is a damage-associated molecular pattern molecule. ► We evaluated the prognostic value of HMGB1 on admission in 258 UA/NSTEMI patients. ► Increased HMGB1 was significantly associated with cardiovascular mortality rate. ► Increased HMGB1 was an independent predictor of cardiovascular mortality. ► Measurements of HMGB1 improve the early risk stratification of UA/NSTEMI patients.
