Coronary stent implantation in patients with unstable angina triggers a systemic inflammatory response characterized by the release of various protein markers.
Does coronary stent implantation induce a systemic inflammatory response measured by protein markers in patients with unstable angina?
Previous evidence has shown that coronary angioplasty leads to the release of inflammatory mediators. In this study, we sought to characterize the systemic inflammatory response after coronary stent implantation in patients with unstable angina by measuring different protein markers.
Sánchez‐Margalet et al. (2002) studied this question. Coronary stent implantation in patients with unstable angina triggers a systemic inflammatory response characterized by the release of various protein markers.
