LGALS3 and cardiac arrest: We found that higher gal3 levels were detected approximately 10 days prior to subjects with VT/VF cardiac arrest compared to 30–40 days before sudden cardiac death [Galectin-3 (pg/mL): survivors, 257.5 ± 18.83; SCD, 458.1 ± 22.8; p < 0.0001, n = 5–9] as seen in Figure 4A,B.
