Abstract | PURPOSE: METHODS: RESULTS: The serum levels of PAPP-A in the STEMI (16.9+/-10.3 mIU/L) and UAP group (15.2+/-10.5 mIU/L) were higher than in the stable angina (8.5+/-3.1 mIU/L) or control group (8.4+/-2.0 mIU/L, P < 0.01). The serum levels of IGF-1 in the STEMI (132.3+/-40.9 microg/L) and UAP group (127.3+/-36.0 microg/L) were also higher than in the stable angina (44.9+/-18.5 microg/L) or control group (67.7+/-24.5microg/L, P < 0.01). There were no differences in serum levels of PAPP-A or IGF-1 among the single, double and three vessel lesion groups. The serum levels of PAPP-A (19.9+/-10.1 mIU/L) and IGF-1 (153.2+/-52.4 microg/L) after PCI were higher than those before PCI (15.1+/-10.0 mIU/L and 91.4+/-51.0 microg/L, respectively, P < 0.01). A positive correlation was found between PAPP-A and IGF-1 levels in the STEMI and UAP group before PCI (r=0.48P < 0.01). CONCLUSION:
