A number of inflammatory markers have been recognized, among which the acute phase reactant C-reactive protein showed a positive correlation with the risk of coronary artery disease in both healthy individuals and those at high risk .
Pentraxin 3 is expressed in atherosclerotic plaques, mainly in macrophages and neutrophils, suggesting that pentraxin 3 may be involved in the progression of atherosclerotic plaque.
We thought to evaluate the role of pentraxin-3 on the preprocedural determinants (Grace score, type of MI, culprit lesion, lesion length, pre-procedural TIMI flow, thrombus burden, severity and complexity of CAD as determined by Syntax score and procedural outcome (post-procedural TIMI flow, no reflow and myocardial perfusion assessed by myocardial blush grade as well as the inhospital clinical outcome of primary Percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with acute ST elevation myocardial infarction.
