ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effects of hyperlipidemia on serum levels of matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9) and C-reactive protein(CRP) in the patients with cerebral infarction(CI).Methods Testing the serum levels of MMP-9,CRP and triglyceride(TG) in 36 CI patients [with high level TG(n=18) and with normal TG(n=18)] and 17 normal controls(NC group).The relationship among the serum levels of MMP-9,CRP and TG were analysed.Results The contents of MMP-9,CRP and TG were significantly higher in CI patients with high level TG group than those in normal level TG group and NC group(all P
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the changes of the levels of serum soluble vascular adhesion protein(sVAP)-1 and C-reactive protein(CRP) in patients with cerebral infarction(CI).Methods The levels of serum sVAP-1 and CRP were detected in CI patients at acute stage (ACI group,20 cases) and at convalescence (CCI group,21 cases).The results were compared with normal controls(NC group,21 cases).Results The levels of serum sVAP-1,CRP in ACI group were significantly higher than those in CCI group and NC group(all P
