Study protocol detailing the patient populations and timing of blood samples. Patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) were enrolled upon their admission. Samples were drawn at presentation (prior to revascularization) and 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours following revascularization. Patients with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) with elevated cardiac enzymes or angina without elevated cardiac enzymes (IHD) were enrolled upon admission and a single blood sample was obtained prior to revascularization.
