- W4328012729 abstract "ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to evaluate the correlation between serum levels of a specific matrix metalloproteinase, matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), and the angiographic criteria of coronary artery ectasia (CAE).BackgroundPreviously, CAE was thought to be a possible manifestation of atherosclerosis, and the relation between matrix metalloproteinase in particular MMP-9 and presence and severity of CAE was not clearly established by previous investigators.Patients and methodsA retrospective study of 100 eligible patients with CAE was studied regarding their clinical presentation, angiographic criteria, and relation of the severity of CAE to serum level of MMP-9. We included assessment of major cardiovascular risk factors.ResultsThere were high serum levels of MMP-9 (>71 ug/dl) in 45% of patients with CAE, and there was a statistically significant relation (P = 0.035) of serum levels of MMP-9 with the number of ectatic vessels (100% for three-vessel disease vs. 43.38% for single-vessel ectasia). Moreover, we found a significant relation with the type of ectasia (83.33% for type 1 vs. 40% for type 2), with P = 0.015.ConclusionsThere is a considerable relationship between elevated levels of MMP-9 and CAE, as well as the relationship between levels of MMP-9 and severity of the CAE." @default.
