However, no distinct surface or biochemical markers of necrotic cell death have been identified yet, and only negative markers are available. These include absence of apoptotic markers (caspase activation, cytochrome c release, and oligonucleosomal DNA fragmentation) and differential kinetics of cell death markers (phosphatidylserine exposure ...
Risk factors for complications and death include age, hemodynamic parameters (such as heart failure, cardiac arrest on admission, systolic blood pressure, or Killip class of two or greater), ST-segment deviation, diabetes, serum creatinine, peripheral vascular disease, and elevation of cardiac markers.

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in women globally. ... Researchers from Brigham and Women’s Hospital found measuring three different biological blood markers can better ...
Depending on the marker, it can take between 2 and 24 hours for the level to increase in the blood. Additionally, determining the levels of cardiac markers in the laboratory - like many other lab measurements - takes substantial time. Cardiac markers are therefore not useful in diagnosing a myocardial infarction in the acute phase.

Livor mortis (from Latin līvor 'bluish color, bruise' and mortis 'of death'), postmortem lividity (from Latin post mortem 'after death' and lividitas 'black and blueness'), hypostasis (from Greek ὑπό (hypo) 'under, beneath' and στάσις (stasis) 'a standing') [1] [2] or suggillation, is the second stage of death and one of the signs of ...
Timeline of postmortem changes (stages of death), with pallor mortis near left side. Pallor mortis (from Latin pallor 'paleness' and mortis 'of death') is the first stage of death that occurs in those with light/white skin. [1] An opto-electronical colour measurement device is used to measure pallor mortis on bodies. [2]
Diagnose myocardial infarct via physical exam and EKG (plus blood test) A diagnosis of myocardial infarction is created by integrating the history of the presenting illness and physical examination with electrocardiogram findings and cardiac markers ( blood tests for heart muscle cell damage ).
