HIGH PREVALENCE OF METABOLIC SYNDROME IN SIBERIAN MEN WITH CORONARY ATHEROSCLEROSIS
In 42-70-year-old Siberian men with coronary atherosclerosis, verified by coronary angiography, the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MS) was as high as 89%, which suggests an important role of MS in atherosclerosis development in the Siberian region. In pre-existing coronary atherosclerosis, biomar...

| Summary: | In 42-70-year-old Siberian men with coronary atherosclerosis, verified by coronary angiography, the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MS) was as high as 89%, which suggests an important role of MS in atherosclerosis development in the Siberian region. In pre-existing coronary atherosclerosis, biomarkers of inflammation and destruction (highly sensitive C-reactive protein, inflammatory cytokines, and destructive metalloproteinases) correlated with MS components, reflecting the pathophysiological role of inflammation in MS development. |
