Figure Comparison of mean (SD) concentrations of neopterin/creatinine in patients with ischaemic heart disease and controls NC=control group; PMI=previous myocardial infarction; UA=unstable angina; AMI=acute myocardial infarction. Neopterin concentrations are expressed as neopterin/creatinine ratios corrected for renal function in all patients. Intra-assay and interassay variation of less than 5% and less than 12%, respectively, for neopterin. *UA vs PMI p<0·005. †UA vs NC p=0·02. ‡AMI vs NC and PMI p<0·001.
