Background.Soluble lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor-1 (LOX-1) level is a novel biomarker for diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome (ACS); however, this level in the coronary circulation has yet to be examined.Methods.Twenty-seven consecutive patients with ACS and 40 patients with effort angina pectoris (EAP) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) had levels of soluble LOX-1 and LOX-1 index measured in paired blood samples from aorta (Ao) and coronary sinus (CS) just prior to the PCI.Results.We found positive correlations between soluble LOX-1 levels in the Ao and CS in both ACS and EAP patients (P<0.01, for both). The soluble LOX-1 levels in the Ao and CS were higher in ACS than in EAP patients (P<0.01, for both). The levels of soluble LOX-1 and LOX-1 index of the CS were significantly greater than those of the Ao in both ACS and EAP patients (P<0.01, for both). Receiver operating characteristic curves for ACS detection demonstrated high sensitivity and specificity for the soluble LOX-1 and LOX-1 index with no differences between the Ao and CS.Conclusions.The present study showed that circulating soluble LOX-1 originates from coronary circulation and soluble LOX-1 and LOX-1 index are useful biomarkers for ACS.

Background: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a fatal entity and can be even more deadly if they develops concomitant complications in the form of arrhythmias like atrial fibrillation. Coronary artery disease is thought to be more severe in cases with ACS and atrial fibrillation. Objective: To determine the angiographic findings in patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome and atrial fibrillation and To find the involvement of more common circulation (right or left coronary circulation) leading to atrial fibrillation in acute coronary syndrome. Materials and Methods: This 6 month case series study conducted at department of Cardiology, Sheikh Zayed Hospital, Rahim Yar Khan from14-01-20 to 14-09-20. A total of 198 cases aged 30-60 years of both gender were included in the study through non-probability consecutive sampling. Patients suffering with ACS and has atrial fibrillation on presentation or develops within 24 hours of admission were included. They underwent coronary angiography to look for number of vessels involved, severity of coronary artery disease and culprit vessel involved. Results: In this study there were total 198 cases. Mean age of the participants was 50.09±5.88 years and mean duration of atrial fibrillation was 14.91± 4.51 hours. There were 70 (35.35%) cases with DM, 78 (39.39%) with HTN and 61 (30.81%) smokers. STEMI was found in 35 (17.68%) and NSTEMI in 152 (76.77%) of cases as in figure 05. One vessel disease was observed in 26 (13.13%), two vessel disease in 147 (74.24%) and three vessel disease in 25 (12.63%) of cases. Mild disease on angiography was seen in 45 (22.73%), moderate in 132 (66.67%) and severe in 21 (10.61%) of the cases.it was found that out of 198 patients , 146 ( 74 %) had right coronary artery culprit lesion and 51 ( 26 %) has left sided coronary circulation culprit lesion and from left coronary circulation, left circumflex was most commonly involved : 41 ( 21 % ) of patients as compared to only 10 ( 5 %) patients had culprit in left anterior descending artery. Conclusion: AF in patients with ACS is most commonly associated with right coronary artery lesionsand right type of coronary circulation. In terms of number and severity of disease the most common pattern observed was two vessel disease comprising almost 3/4th of all cases and moderate disease was in most of the vesselsrespectively. Key words: ACS, Atrial fibrillation
