The literature review presents the characteristics of modern high - sensitivity tests for detection of Tn (hs - cTn) in the blood and the results of large studies on the diagnosis of non segment elevation myocardial infarction (nonSTEMI) using hs - cTn. The results of these studies served as the basis for the development of three - and one - hour diagnostic algorithms nonSTEMI, presented in the recommendations of the European Society of Cardiology 2012 and 2015 and also in fourth Universal Definition of Myocardial Infarction 2018.

To conduct a comparative analysis of the level of asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) in two groups of patients with a diagnosis of essential arterial hypertension (AH). Group I - patients with uncontrolled hypertension (UCAH) and group II - patients with controlled course of hypertension (CAH). ⋯ The concentration of ADMA in patients with UCAH was significantly higher than in the group with CAH. In patients with UCAH, a pronounced positive correlation was found between the concentration of ADMA and creatinine level (r=0.615, p.
