“…Therefore, as one mediator of inflammation, OPG might be linked to the pathophysiology of CS. Levels of OPG (median 626 ng/L) in the present study were comparable with previous results in STEMI without CS (median 711 ng/L) . Therefore, levels of OPG seem to be not significantly up‐regulated in CS in comparison with other forms of the acute coronary syndrome and therefore may not reflect the presence or severity of CS.…”

“…In CS, multiorgan hypoperfusion triggers a systemic inflammatory response due to a complex partly unknown neurohormonal cascade . In the presence of inflammatory triggers such as in acute myocardial infarction, OPG facilitates white blood cell adhesion and migration into blood vessel intima and may therefore promote myocardial reperfusion injury, and also up‐regulates the expression of angiopoietin‐2 . For angiopoietin‐2, a relationship to outcome and severity of CS has been described recently .…”

“…The stress cardiac magnetic resonance care route is an efficient alternative to inpatient care, and can shorten the length of stay in hospital as well as reduce revascularization, recurrent cardiac testing and hospital readmissions in patients with acute chest pain [19]. Moreover, the osteoprotegerin levels in the highest quartile are independent predictors of major adverse cardiovascular events in acute STEMI patients and associated with a greater extent of myocardial damage and lower myocardial salvage by cardiac magnetic resonance [20]. …”

“…25 Furthermore, OPG independently predicted deterioration of heart failure that required hospitalization, mainly in older patients with advanced chronic systolic heart failure of ischemic etiology. 26 OPG has also provided independent prognostic information across the range of acute coronary syndromes [27][28][29] and acute ischemic stroke. 30 This is the first study, to date, which showed that OPG also provides important prognostic information in patients with AL amyloidosis.…”
