Type: article

Abstract: ABSTRACT Objective: This study examines the association between traditional inflammatory biomarkers, suPAR levels in elderly and young myocardial infarction patients, and coronary artery disease severity. Materials and Methods: In this study, 332 participants, including 227 acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients and 107 controls, underwent evaluation through Syntax Score analysis, suPAR, and hs-CRP level assessments. AMI patients were divided into young and elderly groups based on age. Syntax Score was utilized to ascertain the severity of coronary artery disease. Results: suPAR plasma concentrations were significantly higher in AMI patients compared to controls, with values of 2.76 (2.32-3.56) in the young MI group and 3.33 (2.43-4.41) in the elderly MI group, versus 2.33 (1.94-3.11) in the control group (p
