Its Function in Diagnosis of Cardiovascular Disease
Currently, the death rate caused by cardio-vascular diseases
has been rising every year and cardiovascular diseases have become
the number-one cause of human deaths.
Therefore, to do a better
job in the early-stage diagnosis for cardiovascular diseases as
well as in their community prevention and pathological-cause
study is a task of great significance.
The measuring of the content of myoglobin in the blood of
the patients by means of RIA can conduct the predictive diagnosis
for the early-stage acute myocardial infarct. The result can be
obtained only several hours after the attack, with the positive
rate of diagnosis reaching as high as 94.8%, whereas the positive
rate for the conventional method (creatinephosphokinase) is 56.3%.
The myoglobin RIA can also be applied to disease-monitoring as
well as prognosis.
Furthermore, the application of RIA to detecting a class of
bio-active substance in the blood (e.g. renin, angiotensin, I, II,
and III, aldosterone, etc.) can lead to classification of hyper-
tension, hence especially suitable for the general survey of hyper-
tension in the old-age community as well as the prevention and
curing thereof.
