Background: Acute myocardial infarction had been related to greater rates of morbidity and mortality in hospitalized studied cases around the globe. It has been established that male-studied cases have AMI more frequently than female ones do.
Objectives: The present research sought to examine serum electrolytes, myocardial infarction, and levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D in studied cases with acute coronary syndrome.
Subjects and techniques: This research had been a case-control study, where 150 participants (sixty STEMI cases, sixty NSTEMI cases and thirty controls) had been recruited from the Cardiology Department, Faculty of Medicine, Aswan University. Results: All Vit-D level was significantly lower among STEMI and NSTEMI cases linked to a healthy control population (p <0.001). Serum Ca, K, and Na were significantly lower among STEMI and NSTEMI cases compared to healthy control population, while Mg was significantly higher among STEMI and NSTEMI cases compared to healthy control population (p <0.05).
Conclusion: vitamin D and serum electrolytes were deficient in all studied cases with ACS compared to controls. Additionally, we determined that low vitamin D, high LDL, total cholesterol, impaired renal function and low HDL-C were significant ACS predictors.
