Factors associated with periprocedural myocardial infarction

Özet

We have read with great interest the article by Yao et al. (1)on the association between baseline CRP levels and the occurrence of periprocedural myocardial infarction. It is reported thathigher baseline CRP levels are associated with increased periprocedural myocardial infarction incidence. Patient medications,except statins and antiplatelets, were not assessed, and this wasreported as a limitation (1).
