MICROALBUMINURIA IN NON DIABETIC ACUTE CORONARY SYNDROME PATIENTS

Abstract

Atherosclerosis remains the leading cause of death and premature disability. Coronary diseases Aute coronary Syndrome(ACS) is a common complication and this is associated with more than 2.5 million hospitalizations world wide each year, Endothelial dysfunction seems to play a key role in non-diabetic glomerulosclerosis and atherosclerosis. Increased permeability of the endothelium allows atherosclerotic lipoprotein particles (oxidized LDL and others) to penetrate into the vessel wall and promote the development of atherosclerotic plaques be associated with higher prevalence of coronary artery disease , microalbuminuria has been suggested as a risk factor indicator for cardiovascular events
