This study was performed to gain further insight in the heterogeneity of monocytes in the different categories of acute coronary syndrome (ACS), especially between patients with unstable angina pectoris, ST‐elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), and non‐ST‐elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI)....
