title: [Stratification of cardiac risk in unstable angina: value of troponin measurements].
abstract: Recent studies have identified patients with unstable angina and increased troponin I or T as a high risk population gaining benefit from adjunctive treatment with glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor antagonists and early reperfusion by coronary interventions.
