Abstract：Objective To investigate the relationship between level of serum ischemia-modified albumin (IMA) and severity of coronary artery disease in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).Methods The patients with ACS (n=160) were chosen and all of them were given detection of IMA level and coronary angiography (CAG). According to CAG outcomes the patients were divided into group B (without coronary artery stenosis or coronary stenosis<50%,n=42) and group C (coronary artery stenosis>50%,n=118). Other 30 healthy people were chosen and given detection of IMA level (group A). Group C was divided again, according to lesion features, into simple group and complex group, and according to Gensini integral, into group C1 (Gensini integral<20), group C2 (Gensini integral from 20 to 40) and group C3 (Gensini integral>40).Results The level of serum IMA was significantly higher in group C than that in group A and group B (P<0.05). The level of serum IMA increased as coronary lesion exacerbated.Conclusion The increase of serum IMA level is consistent to the severity of coronary artery lesion, which can be taken as a reference index for early diagnosis of ACS.
