INTRODUCTION
Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is an ischemic
cardiac manifestation which may result in
myocardial damage and necrosis parallel to
prolonged duration of ischemia. In USA, the
estimated yearly incidence of myocardial infarction
is indicated as 610.000 new attacks and 325.000
recurrent attacks.1 Since ACS is a period of race
against time, early diagnosis and treatment
is crucial in terms of decreased mortality and
morbidity. Currently, cardiac biochemical markers
with high sensitivity and specificity are used in
clinical practice; however, serum levels of these
markers rise in a couple of hours after the attack,
and negative results are found on presentation to
the emergency department.2,3 Therefore, for the
early diagnosis of ACS patients, studies related to
