The catheter ablation of cardiac arrhythmias causes myocardial destruction and increase the troponin C-reactive protein (CRP). Data regarding dynamics high-sensitivity during irrigated are scarce, for diagnostic electrophysiological studies (EPS) lacking. We aimed to study periprocedural I (hscTn I) CRP, as well their relation different procedural parameters EPS various arrhythmias. Material me...

background: inflammation and infectious agents such as chlamydia pneumoniae have been associated with cardiovascular disease. objective: to evaluate the serum high sensitivity c - reactive protein (hs-crp) and antibodies against chlamydia pneumoniae and chlamydial heat shock protein-60 (cp-hsp60) in patients with ischemic heart disease (ihd). methods: 62 patients with ihd having either acute my...

objective(s) homocysteine, hs-crp and fibrinogen are three novel cardiovascular risk factors. the aim of this study was to examine the effect of a single bout of circuit resistance exercise on homocysteine, hs-crp and fibrinogen levels in healthy and inactive men. materials and methods the subjects were randomly divided into the experimental group (n= 14) and the control group (n= 9). circuit t...

background: stroke is a heterogeneous disease with several risk factors. high sensitivity c-reactive protein (hscrp) is a marker for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. recent studies have shown that high hscrp level is a risk factor for ischemic stroke. the objective of our study was to investigate the association of high hscrp (> 3 mg/l) levels with ischemic stroke and its subtypes i...
