Abstract

Biological metabolites LysoPC (18:0), LysoPC (20:3), fatty acid (16:1), fatty acid (18:0), fatty acid (18:1), fatty acid (18:2) and fatty acid (22:6) according to the present disclosure allow for simple and accurate diagnosis of a cardiovascular disease since their level in the blood of a subject increases or decreases if the subject has a cardiovascular disease such as myocardial infarction or angina. In addition, whereas the existing biomarkers can diagnose only whether myocardial infarction occurs or not, the biological metabolites according to the present disclosure can diagnose not only myocardial infarction but also unstable angina occurring prior to the onset of myocardial infarction stage by stage.
