Coronary venous lipid peroxide concentrations after coronary angioplasty: correlation with biochemical and electrocardiographic evidence of myocardial ischaemia

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

Background—Raised lipid peroxide concentrations in coronary venous plasma have been reported after coronary angioplasty in humans. This may reflect increased free radical activity after myocardial ischaemia and reperfusion. If so, it may be possible to correlate lipid peroxide concentrations with the degree of myocardial ischaemia produced during angioplasty.
