ISCHEMIA, ACUTE MYOCARDIAL ISCHEMIA, MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION
Diagnosing myocardial infarction is difficult during the initial phase. As, acute myocardial ischemia is associated with changes in metabolic pathways, metabolomics may provide ways of identifying early stages of ischemia. We investigated the changes in metabolites after induced ischemia in humans using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR).
