The objective of the study was to establish the correlations between blood serum lipid spectrum indices, biomarkers of inflammation and age in patients with unstable angina. Established correlations can determine the degree of interconnectedness of studied processes. The weaker processes conjugations, the more flexibly system reacts to external conditions changings. In unstable angina the majority of substantial strong correlations between the studied parameters and the age of patients, as well as between the studied parameters and content of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) was recorded. The results may indicate that at unstable angina with the age there is a gradual loss of dynamism and flexibility of immuno-inflammatory and metabolic systems.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
