Abstract

Background: Severe Myocardial Infarction is a highly stark manifestation of heart illness, often accompanied with additional complications such as diabetes mellitus (DM) and hypertension (HTN). The hormone within the body enables glucose to enter the cells and burn them up as fuel. HTN is a common vascular disorder that represents a major cardiovascular condition.  Methods: The study was conducted at the Biochemistry Department of the College of Medicine from April 2022 to May 2023 and used the Human Vit K2 ELISA Kit, Human Lp(a) ELISA Kit, and Human N-terminal ProBST ELISA Kit to estimate the serum levels of vitamin K2, lipoprotein (a) (Lp(a)), and N-terminal of the Pro brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP). Results: The results showed a important decrease in VK2 levels in AMI patients with DM and HTN than the other two groups (less than AMI patients group with and without HDL-c). On the other hand, Lp(a), and NT-pro BNP levels were significantly increased in AMI patients with DM and HTN than the other two groups (less than AMI patients group with no DM and HTN). As the diagnostic accuracy of tests increased, the area under the ROC curve for NTproBNP for diagnosing AMI achieved the highest 0.988. NTproBNP showed a promising ability to differentiate AMI patients from DM+ HTN group with 0.971 (AUC). Conclusions: In diabetic hypertensive patients with acute myocardial infarction, a low level of vitamin K2 and a high level of lipoprotein(a) might be risk markers for the onset of myocardial infarction.
