Identification of significant coronary artery disease by the measurement of H-FABP (Heart-type Fatty Acid Binding Protein) for patients with normal troponin concentrations
OBJECTIVE: We intend to investigate the ability of H-FABP levels to identify significant coronary artery disease in low- to intermediate-risk patients with suspected acute coronary syndrome (ACS). BACKGROUND: H-FABP is a small intracellular protein involved in the transport and buffering of fatty ac...
