چکیده

Peak serum C-reactive protein concentrations were measured in 146 patients randomized to receive streptokinase, alteplase, or a combination of streptokinase and alteplase in the GUSTO-I trial. Those receiving alteplase treatment had lower values than those receiving streptokinase or the combination treatment. Irrespective of treatment, complete reperfusion of the infarct-related artery (TIMI grade 3 flow) was associated with low peak serum C-reactive protein values.
