Eosinophil cationic protein: A new diagnostic biomarker in coronary slow flow phenomenon

This study has investigated the role of eosinophil cationic protein (ECP), released by eosinophils, in the coronary slow flow phenomenon. This study included sixty patients with coronary slow flow (CSF) and sixty patients with normal coronary flow. The coronary flow rate was evaluated with TIMI fram...

Zusammenfassung:	This study has investigated the role of eosinophil cationic protein (ECP), released by eosinophils, in the coronary slow flow phenomenon. This study included sixty patients with coronary slow flow (CSF) and sixty patients with normal coronary flow. The coronary flow rate was evaluated with TIMI frame count (TFC). ECP level, blood count and biochemical parameters were assessed. The ECP levels (18.9±7.5 vs 13.1±6.4 ng/ml, p
