摘要:
Disclosed is a prediction method for the prognosis of sepsis comprising measuring an sCD14-ST level in a sample. sCD14-ST, to be measured in the present invention, is a marker superior to procalcitonin, known as a marker to predict the prognosis in sepsis patients.

The present invention relates to a method of diagnosing acute pulmonary embolism (PE) in a subject including a) determining the amount of fibrin-fibrinogen degradation products, in particular D-dimer in a sample of the subject; b) determining the amount of a natriuretic peptide in a sample of the subject; c) determining the amount of a cardiac troponin in a sample of the subject; and d) comparing the amounts determined in steps a) to c) to reference amounts, thereby establishing the diagnosis. Included is also a method of deciding on a therapy of a subject diagnosed with PE and a method of monitoring the therapy.

摘要:
The present invention concerns methods for diagnosing myocardial infarction, for performing risk stratification of myocardial infarction, for making a prognosis of a disease course in a myocardial infarction patient, for identifying a patient with elevated risk of myocardial infarction, or combinations thereof, wherein a determination of at least three markers is performed on a patient sample. Furthermore, kits for performing the methods are provided.
摘要:
The present invention relates to the use of cardiac hormones, particularly natriuretic peptides, for diagnosing the cardiovascular risk of a patient who is a candidate for administration of a cox-2-inhibiting compound, in particular an NSAID, selective cox-2 inhibitor, or steroid. More particularly, the present invention relates to the use of cardiac hormones, particularly natriuretic peptides, for diagnosing the cardiovascular risk of a patient who is a candidate for administration of a selective cox-2 inhibitor, comprising the steps of (a) measuring, preferably in vitro, the level of a cardiac hormone, (b) diagnosing the risk of the patient by comparing the measured level to known levels associated with different grades of risk in a patient. The most preferred cardiac hormone in the context of the present invention is NT-proBNP. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a method for diagnosing the risk of a patient to suffer from a cardiovascular complication as a consequence of administration of a cox-2 inhibiting compound, comprising the steps of (a) measuring the level of a cardiac hormone, (b) diagnosing the risk of the patient by comparing the measured level to known levels associated with different grades of risk in a patient.
