Markers of Inflammation Associated with Plaque Progression and Instability in Patients with Carotid Atherosclerosis
Atherosclerosis is the focal expression of a systemic disease affecting medium- and large-sized arteries, in which traditional cardiovascular risk factor and immune factors play a key role. It is well accepted that circulating biomarkers, including C-reactive protein and interleukin-6, reliably pred...
