Introduction: The study aimed to evaluate the differences in secretion of NT-proBNP and cardiac troponin T (cTnT), in patients with NSTE-ACS for the early detection of myocardial ischemia in NSTE-ACS.Methods: Hundred and sixteen patients admitted for non-ST-elevation ACS (NSTE-ACS), 71(61.2%) men, mean age 68.7±10.2 were prospectively investigated. Plasma NT-proBNP and cTnT were measured by electrochemiluminescence (Elecsys/Cobas e, Roche Diagnostic...
