Abstract: The disclosure relates to a computing device and a system that can be applied for estimating the probability of myocardial infarction. The computing device comprises a receiver configured to receive a set of vital parameters of a subject, the set of vital parameters including troponin data of the subject, the troponin data of the subject being measured using an initial troponin assay, a selector configured to select a troponin assay from a set of troponin assays, a repository configured to provide a plurality of estimation modules corresponding to the selected troponin assay, wherein the plurality of estimation modules constitute a super learner module, and at least one processor configured to use the plurality of estimation modules to estimate the probability of myocardial infarction of the subject using the set of vital parameters including the troponin data of the subject. The system includes with a server and a corresponding computing device.

Abstract: An in vitro method for the risk stratification of patients with stable arteriosclerosis, especially stable coronary artery disease, is disclosed wherein the concentration of procalcitonin is determined in the circulation of such patients using a highly sensitive PCT assay, and wherein within the range of PCT concentrations in the typical normal range of healthy individuals cutoff values are defined which distinguish groups of individual patients with stable arteriosclerosis in accordance with personal cardiac risk, and patients are allotted to one of said risk groups on the basis of their individual PCT concentrations.

Abstract: The present invention relates to materials and procedures for evaluating patients suffering from cardiovascular conditions, particularly acute coronary syndromes. In particular, the presence, amount, or enzymatic activity of glutathione peroxidase-1 in a patient sample, alone or in combination with one or more other markers, provides diagnostic and/or prognostic information. While applicable to diseases and conditions in which inflammation is generally manifested, the methods and compositions described herein are particularly applicable to acute coronary syndromes, including conditions selected from the group consisting of unstable angina, non-ST-elevation non-Q wave myocardial infarction, ST-elevation non-Q wave MI, and transmural (Q-wave) MI.
