Patients and Methods: The study included 30 patients (mean age 62.1 ± 8.3 years; range 47 to 77 years) with SAP and a positive exercise test result. Serum Lp-PLA2 levels were measured at baseline. Exercise testing and Lp-PLA2 measurements were repeated after at least 12 weeks of TMZ treatment. Results: After TMZ treatment, Lp-PLA2 levels decreased significantly (p= 0.006), and workload increased significantly (p= 0.048). Conclusion: Trimetazidine treatment reduces serum Lp-PLA2 levels via shifting cardiac metabolism, resulting in decreased production of free oxygen radicals and inflammation. This finding, together with improvements in exercise test parameters, suggests that TMZ may have a beneficial effect on the prognosis of patients with SAP.

Hastalar ve Yöntem: Egzersiz testi pozitif olan kararlı anjina pektorisli 30 hasta (ort. yaş 62.1 ± 8.3; dağılım 47-77) çalışmaya alındı. Trimetazidin tedavisi öncesinde Lp-PLA2 düzeyleri ölçüldü; 12 haftalık TMZ tedavisi sonrasında egzersiz testi ve Lp-PLA2 ölçümleri tekrarlandı. Bulgular: Trimetazidin tedavisi sonrasında Lp-PLA2 düzeyleri anlamlı düşüş (p= 0.006), egzersiz iş yükü anlamlı artış (p= 0.048) gösterdi. Sonuç: Trimetazidin tedavisi kardiyak metabolizma değişikliği sonucu serbest oksijen radikal oluşumunu ve enflamasyonu azaltarak Lp-PLA2 düzeyinde anlamlı düşüş sağlamaktadır. Bu bulgu, egzersiz parametrelerindeki iyileşmelerle birlikte, TMZ tedavisinin kararlı anjina pektorisli hastaların prognozunda olumlu katkı sağlayabileceğini göstermektedir.
