JF - Annals of Translational Medicine; Vol 8, No 8 (April 30, 2020): Annals of Translational Medicine Y2 - 2020 KW - N2 - Non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndromes (NSTE-ACS) are responsible for almost 1 million admissions in the U.S. annually (1), and represent a spectrum of clinical conditions ranging from unstable angina (UA) to non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). The most important cause is intraluminal thrombosis due to atherosclerotic plaque rupture, which impairs distal blood flow and may lead to myocardial ischemia or infarction.
