Abstract
Relation of Saliva and Blood Troponin Levels in Patients with Myocardial Infarction: Cross- Sectional Clinical Study
Myocardial infarction is a cardiovascular disease that causes death and disabilities in patients. Diagnoses are essential for treatment. One diagnostic procedure is studying the amount of blood troponin levels.Considering the difficulties related to drawing blood from patients, using techniques such as testing saliva levels, as a noninvasive route, can be used
