Prognostic Value of Serum Gamma-Glutamyltransferase, Calcium, and Inorganic Phosphorus Levels in Short-Term Mortality of Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome

Prognostic Value of Serum Gamma-Glutamyltransferase, Calcium, and Inorganic Phosphorus Levels in Short-Term Mortality of Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome

Objective: Gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) may be considered as a biomarker of “oxidative stress” associated with glutathione metabolism and a possible “proatherogenic” marker because of its indirect relationship with the biochemical steps in the oxidation of low density lipoprotein cholesterol.
