Implication
Systemic and peripheral inflammation may play a significant role in the delayed recovery of cardiac function in patients with Takotsubo syndrome.
PICO
P
Population
An editorial discussing recent evidence on the role of systemic inflammation and myocardial edema in the delayed recovery of cardiac function among patients with Takotsubo syndrome.
E
Exposure / Comparator
Systemic inflammation
Limitations
- The mechanisms by which systemic inflammation of peripheral organs prevents improvement of cardiac function in TTS are unknown and remain to be addressed.
- The relationship between the recovery of cardiac function and systemic inflammation in TTS remains unclear and requires further study.
Cite This Study
Yoneyama et al. (2021) conducted an editorial in Takotsubo syndrome. Systemic inflammation was evaluated. Systemic inflammation, indicated by high C-reactive protein levels at discharge, may contribute to prolonged cardiac dysfunction and incomplete recovery in patients with Takotsubo syndrome.
