A master’s thesis at the College of Medicine at the University of Karbala discussed the role of new biomarkers in diagnosing vascular diseases and explaining the mechanism of their occurrence.
The study presented by researcher Saif Sayhoud Hatib aimed to evaluate the association between biochemical markers, such as melanoma inhibitory activity 3 (MIA3), the adhesion molecule E-selectin, and cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP), as new independent biomarkers for coronary artery disease.
The study found that there was a clear statistically significant increase between the patient groups and the healthy group for the study variables (MIA3, E-selectin, and CETP), while the fat levels of the study participants recorded a noticeable increase in the patient groups compared to healthy people, which indicates a positive relationship between them and Study variables.
