• Introduction - Recently, the prevalence of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has been increasing in the younger generation. With the advances in the field of medicine, elevated serum levels of various biomarkers like c-reactive protein (CRP), various lipoproteins and homocysteine have been identified to be related to AMI. • Objective - To clinically diagnose acute myocardial infarction in young patients and correlate the levels of serum lipoprotein, serum homocysteine and serum hs-crp and to calculate the level of risk depending on their levels. • Method - A hospital based observational study in which 50 subjects were enrolled in the study as per the inclusion and exclusion criteria. • Results - The results support the current global findings of the younger generation, especially the males, being affected by AMI (Acute Myocardial Infarction). Sedentary lifestyle and BMI >25 can be considered as major risk factors leading to AMI. A considerable proportion of our AMI patients had significantly elevated levels of homocysteine, hs-CRP and lipoprotein A and low levels of HDL-C indicating their correlation with AMI.

Abstract A previously reported agarose gel electrophoretic technique for the determination of serum lipoprotein patterns has been modified for analysis of a large number of samples for screening and epidemiological purposes. In addition, we demonstrate the varieties of lipoprotein patterns that can clearly be distinguished and visually evaluated for practical applications in the clinical laboratory.
