Role of inflammatory factors in atrial fibrillation
AbstractThe influence of factors of inflammation and oxidative stress on emergence of the fibrillation of auricles (FA) is estimated in this article. It considers the role of such indicators as the C-reactive protein, interleukins, a tumor necrosis factor α, NF-kappaB, matrix metalloproteinase and their inhibitors, troponin, pentraxin, transforming growth factor, general oxidative status. It is supposed that these biomarkers can be used for specification of risk stratification at FP.
