Plasma osteopontin concentration is elevated in patients with coronary bare metal stent restenosis.

CONCLUSIONS: Elevated plasma osteopontin concentration is associated with in-stent stenosis in patients with coronary artery disease. Further studies will be needed to establish whether osteopontin can predict in-stent restenosis and guide clinical management strategies. PMID: 28841817 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
