TI  - Vitamin D Deficiency Predicts the ST Elevation Type of Myocardial Infarction in 
      Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome.
PG  - 73-78
AB  - According to studies, a significant association exists between the low levels of 
      vitamin D and cardiovascular diseases such as myocardial infarction (MI). In a 
      prospective case control study, 88 patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) 
      including ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and Non-STEMI were enrolled. 
      The plasma level of 25-hydroxy vitamin D [25(OH) D] was obtained at the time of 
      acute MI. To assess the association between study variables logistic regression 
      analysis was done. The overall rate of vitamin D deficiency was documented in 
      59.1% with the significantly higher prevalence rate in STEMI group (77.5% versus 
      43.7%; p = 0.001). In STEMI group, the plasma level of 25(OH) vitamin D was 
      significantly lower than non-STEMI group (13.5 +/- 7.7 versus 24.3 +/- 14.9; p = 
      0.001). Vitamin D deficiency was the main predictor in occurring the ST elevation 
      type of MI (Odd ratio: 8.1, 95% CI: 2.3 - 28.2; p = 0.001). The results of the 
      present study demonstrated a higher prevalence of vitamin D deficiency among ACS 
      patients. Furthermore, vitamin D deficiency was responsible for occurring ST 
      elevation type of MI among ACS patients. Large studies are needed to confirm 
      these findings.
