AbstractAimMyocardial infarction (MI) is one of the most important cardiovascular diseases. A trigger is an external stimulus, potential to create a pathological change leading to a clinical event. In addition to classic risk factors of ischemic heart disease and myocardial infarction, MI triggers play critical roles in the incidence of acute MI.Methods and ResultsThis is a cross-sectional study of 254 patients with the first acute myocardial infarction referring to Seyedoshohada heart center of Urmia, Iran were enrolled in the study within one year of study. After 48h of hospitalization and, treatment, and cardiac caring, the patients were provided with the questionnaire to collecting the history of the disease ad triggers. In addition to laboratory and paraclinical data, the analysis of the study was performed. Out of 220 (86.4%) patients with STEMI and 34 (13.6%) patients with NSTEMI, there were significant differences (P-value <0.05) in AMI triggers with LVEF (0.03), gender (0.027), residency and living area (0.039), occupation (0.002), smoking (0.008), abnormal serum TG levels (0.018) and the season of AMI occurrence (0.013). The mean age for AMI patients was 60.4±12.97 years old with a mean BMI of 26.65±4.35 kg/m2.ConclusionIn addition to classic risk factors of ischemic heart disease and myocardial infarction, health care systems and physicians must pay more attention to triggers that may induce an acute myocardial infarction in people with predisposing factors especially in the male sex, stressful and hand working jobs, and psychological and mental tension patients.

Objectives: To find out distribution of cardiovascular risk factors for women inestablished coronary artery disease. Study Design: Retrospective cross sectional descriptivestudy. Place and Duration of Study: Private clinic of consultant cardiologist at Bahawalpur fromJune 2013 to December 2015. Methodology: Total 6345 patients were registered and only 820female patients were diagnosed cases of ischemic heart disease selected for analysis of theircardiovascular risk factors. Results: The overall mean age of women was 57.75±11.28 years,weight was 66.3±15.14 kilogram, height was 153.77±7.87 cm, body mass index (BMI) was27.89±6 kg/m2 and body surface area (BSA) was 1.76±0.28 m2. Significantly high frequencyof obesity was found in premenopausal women as compared to other group i.e. 56.5% with pvalue <0.0001. BMI was also high in premenopausal women 32.13±7.91 then perimenopausalwomen, postmenopausal women and women with hysterectomy 28.06±6.93, 27.84±5.51 and27.33±6.03 respectively. The overall weight is also more in premenopausal group as comparedto postmenopausal, perimenopasaul and hysterectomy group i.e. 77.54±21.18, 66.46±13.66,66.07±16.33 and 64.41±15.31 respectively and P Value was <0.0001. There was no differencefound when DM, HTN and smoking compared within these four group. Smoking, CVA and PCI orCABG were 13(1.5%), 30(3.7%) and 13(1.5%) women respectively. Conclusion: Hypertensionand DM are most common risk factor in women with IHD. Weight, BMI and different class ofobesity are more common in younger age group as compare to older age. Smoking, PCI andCABG are very less frequent in women in this area.

Magnesium (Mg) and potassium (K) are the major intracellular cations whose presence in the serum are low, but minor changes of those may show a remarkable change in the various body functions specially in the heart. The study was designed to find out the correlation between serum Mg and K in acute myocardial infarction (AMI), chronic ischemic heart disease (CIHD) and normal healthy volunteers. It was carried out over a period of 18 months in the Department of Biochemistry, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU) in collaboration with Department of Cardiology, Sir Salimullah Medical College & Mitford Hospital (SSMC & MH) and Atomic Energy Center, Dhaka. A total of 101 subjects were included in which 32 subjects were AMI, 34 CIHD and 35 normal healthy volunteers. Serum glucose and serum creatinine were estimated to exclude diabetes and renal dystrophies. Estimation of serum CK-MB and ECG tracing were done as diagnostic tools of AMI and to categories the subjects into various groups. Serum Mg was estimated by Atomic absorption spectrophotometer and serum K by Ion sensitive electrode. The present study shows that there is a strong positive correlation of serum Mg and K in AMI, CIHD and healthy control subjects (r = 0.566, p<0.01 level). So it is suggested to estimate and supplement both Mg and K in IHD patients for their better management. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjmb.v3i2.13812 Bangladesh J Med Biochem 2010; 3(2): 50-56
