RDW and uric acid levels were associated with slow coronary flow; supports inflammatory hypothesis but leaves open diagnostic or prognostic utility.
Are red cell distribution width and serum uric acid levels increased in patients with slow coronary flow compared to those with normal coronary flow?
Elevated red cell distribution width and serum uric acid levels are independently associated with slow coronary flow, supporting a potential inflammatory pathophysiological basis.
