The relationship between serum levels of hs-CRP and coronary lesion severity
BACKGROUND AND AIM It is very important to know the risk factors of coronary artery disease and the role of inflammatory markers. One of these markers is hs-CRP that has been indicated to increase in patients with coronary artery atherosclerosis. The main objective of this study was to determine the relationship between serum levels of hs-CRP and coronary lesion severity. METHODS In the curre...
متن کاملHyperphosphatemia and hs-CRP Initiate the Coronary Artery Calcification in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients
Background. Coronary artery calcification (CAC) contributes to high risk of cardiocerebrovascular diseases in dialysis patients. However, the risk factors for CAC initiation in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients are not known clearly. Methods. Adult patients with baseline CaCS = 0 and who were followed up for at least 3 years or until the conversion from absent to any measurable CAC detected wer...
متن کاملCorrelation between hs-CRP and Asthma Control Indices
BACKGROUND Local and systemic inflammation occur at the same time in asthma and high sensitive CRP may play a role in the pathogenesis of this disease. Conventional approaches to monitor and control asthma involve no direct assessment of airway inflammation. There are some recent data postulating a discrepancy between the markers of airway and systemic inflammation and asthma control test (ACT)...
متن کاملProvoked coronary spasm and acute coronary syndromes.
lthough coronary artery spasm (CAS) has been linked ith acute coronary syndromes (ACS) and vulnerable laque (1), thrombosis (2), percutaneous coronary intervenion (PCI), and stenting (3–7), very limited attention is iven to CAS in the current era. This may be related to ssumptions that the frequency of CAS is decreasing and if resent it will be eliminated with calcium antagonist (8) or itrate u...
متن کاملCoronary Circulation After Coronary Spasm
To examine whether acute myocardial ischemia activates the coagulation system and platelet activation in the coronary circulation, we measured plasma levels of fibrinopeptide A and j3-thromboglobulin in the coronary sinus and the aortic root simultaneously in 15 patients with coronary spastic angina before and after the left coronary spasm induced by intracoronary injection of acetylcholine and...
