Interleukin-1 gene cluster polymorphisms associated with coronary slow flow phenomenon
We found the publication “Association of Interleukin-1 Gene cluster polymorphisms with coronary slow flow phenomenon (CSFP)” (1) very interesting. Mutluer et al. (1) concluded that “IL1ß+3954 SNP mutations are significantly more common in patients with CSFP” and “It may suggest that the tendency for inflammation may contribute to the presence of this phenomenon.” In fact, based on the present s...
متن کاملAssociation of Interleukin-1 Gene cluster polymorphisms with coronary slow flow phenomenon
OBJECTIVE Coronary slow flow phenomenon (CSFP) is characterized by the decreased rate of contrast progression in epicardial coronary arteries in the absence of significant coronary stenosis. Mounting evidence has showed a significant association between inflammation and CSFP severity. This study aimed to evaluate possible associations between interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) gene vari...
متن کاملCoronary slow flow phenomenon: an angiographic curiosity.
Cardiologists are familiar with the phenomenon of slow progression of angiographic contrast in the coronary arteries in the absence of stenosis in the epicardial vessels in some patients presenting with chest pain. The coronary slow flow phenomenon (CSFP), first described in 1972, remains scantily studied. This phenomenon should be distinguished from occurrence of slow flow in the context of co...
متن کاملDefining the coronary slow flow phenomenon.
he enigma of angina in the absence of significant epicardial coronary artery disease (CAD) has puzzled cardiologists since the advent of invasive coronary angiography. Indeed, an early paper by Likoff et al1 was entitled ‘Paradox of normal selective coronary angiograms in patients considered to have unmistakable coronary heart disease’ and described 15 women with angina, a positive exercise str...
