Background: Following Myocardial Infarction some proteins and enzymes, CPK-MB/ Troponin-I, T, are released into the blood from the necrotic heart muscle. Serum Uric Acid (SUA) may be a risk factor and negative prognostic marker for cardiovascular diseases. Aim of the study was to study serum uric acid levels in patients of acute Myocardial infarction with congestive heart failure, its relation with stages of congestive heart failure as per Killip classification and the role of serum uric acid levels as a marker of mortality.Methods: The case control study was conducted on 120 patients divided into two groups. Group A included 60 patients of acute Myocardial infarction. Group A was further divided into two categories. One includes 30 patients of with congestive heart failure and another includes 30 patients without congestive heart failure. Group B consists of 60 control patients. Serum uric acid levels were measured in Group A on 1st, 3rd and 7th day of hospital admission and in Group B on 1st day.Results: The study showed females have higher degree of hyperuricemia than males. SUA was significantly higher in patients of acute myocardial infarction than control group patients. SUA were also higher in patients with history of IHD, in patients with BNP >100 and it correlates with Killip class and mortality rates. Patients of acute myocardial infarction with diabetes mellitus had higher degree of hyperuricemia than nondiabetic and control group. No significant difference in SUA levels were observed with regard to age, alcohol intake, lipid profile, ejection fraction and hypertension.Conclusions: In acute myocardial infarction, patients with hyperuricemia had higher mortality and may be considered as poor prognostic biomarker.

Aims: Rheumatoid arthritis may influence the outcome after an acute myocardial infarction. We aimed to compare trends in one-year mortality, co-morbidities and treatments after a first acute myocardial infarction in patients with rheumatoid arthritis versus non-rheumatoid arthritis patients during 1998–2013. Furthermore, we wanted to identify characteristics associated with mortality. Methods and results: Data for 245,377 patients with a first acute myocardial infarction were drawn from the Swedish Register of Information and Knowledge about Swedish Heart Intensive Care Admissions for 1998–2013. In total, 4268 patients were diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to study mortality trends over time and multivariable Cox regression analysis was used to identify variables associated with mortality. The one-year mortality in rheumatoid arthritis patients was initially lower compared to non-rheumatoid arthritis patients (14.7% versus 19.7%) but thereafter increased above that in non-rheumatoid arthritis patients (17.1% versus 13.5%). In rheumatoid arthritis patients the mean age at admission and the prevalence of atrial fibrillation increased over time. Congestive heart failure decreased more in non-rheumatoid arthritis than in rheumatoid arthritis patients. Congestive heart failure, atrial fibrillation, kidney failure, rheumatoid arthritis, prior diabetes mellitus and hypertension were associated with significantly higher one-year mortality during the study period 1998–2013. Conclusions: The decrease in one-year mortality after acute myocardial infarction in non-rheumatoid arthritis patients was not applicable to rheumatoid arthritis patients. This could partly be explained by an increased age at acute myocardial infarction onset and unfavourable trends with increased atrial fibrillation and congestive heart failure in rheumatoid arthritis. Rheumatoid arthritis per se was associated with a significantly worse prognosis.
