Various researches have found Gamma glutamyl transferase (GGT) as a marker of oxidative stress and its relationship with coronary artery disease (CAD). There is lacunae in literature data exploring the changes of GGT levels in acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Aim- To assess the prevalence of raised GGT and its correlates in ACS patients. Methodology-Hospital based observational study conducted between April 2021 to December 2022 at Medicine department of JNU Hospital Jaipur on 155 patients of ACS .ACS was diagnosed on the basis of history, electrocardiogram and biochemical markers. The magnitude of raised GGT among ACS was 66.38% in males and 82.05% in females . The mean GGT in non ST elevated myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), ST elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI) and unstable angina (UA) was 60.60 IU/L ,55.89 IU/L and 55.77 IU/L .
