Interconnections between lipid metabolism indices and inflammation biomarkers in patients with unstable angina depending on age

Abstract

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.
