Study of Enzymes in Myocardial Infarction

Abstract

The term Myocardial infarction signifies sudden necrosis or death of a portion of cardiac muscle due to inadequate blood supply [1]. Myocardial infarction results from prolonged myocardial coronary thrombus at the site of a pre-existing atherosclerotic stenosis [2]. The major cause of acute myocardial infarction is atherosclerosis [3]. It is three to four times more frequent among men than women [4].
