Case control study was carried out in Kirkuk city in the intensive care unit in Kirkuk general hospital from

and thirty healthy individuals to evaluate the level of Malondialdehyde (MDA) in myocardial infraction
patients and healthy controls. All patients were aged between (40-80) years, with a negative family history

patients belonged to the age group 60-69 year flowed by 28.33% in the age group 50-59 year. The study
displayed that the highest mean of MDA was recorded in MI (104.7±13.0 ng/ml) as compared with the
control group (66.7± 22.7 ng/ml), The result was significant (P: < 0.05). The study concluded that, The
study displayed that the MDA levels were elevated significantly in patients group as compared with the
control group and MDA is may be an important cardiovascular parameter, which may be followed before
and during the disease.
