Serum inflammatory factors such as MMP-9 are associated with post-percutaneous transluminal angioplastyacute myocardial infarction in coronary heart disease patients complicated by lower extremity arteriosclerosis obliterans

This study shows a significant correlation between the changes of serum IFs (MMP-9, hs-CRP, IL-6, and TNF-α) and post-PTA AMI in ASO patients complicated by CHD. Patients with upregulated post-PTA levels of the above Ifs in serum are at an elevated risk of developing AMI, and active and effective control will help to prevent AMI.PMID:38279498 | DOI:10.14715/cmb/2023.69.15.6
