ABSTRACT: Objectives
Reactive oxygen species generated by xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) are associated with the progression of atherosclerosis. However, changes in plasma XOR (pXOR) activity after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for stable coronary artery disease (CAD) remains unknown.Methods
Herein, we compared the change in the pXOR activity in patients undergoing PCI with that in patients undergoing coronary angiography (CAG) and further evaluated the relation between changes in pXOR activity and in-hospital and long-term outcomes of patients undergoing PCI. The pXOR activity of 80 consecutive patients who underwent PCI and 25 patients who underwent CAG during the hospitalization was analyzed daily. The percentage changes from baseline regulated time interval was evaluated.Results
We found that although pXOR activity decreased after PCI, and remained low until discharge, no significant changes were observed in patients undergoing CAG. Furthermore, among the patients undergoing PCI, those who experienced in-hospital adverse events, had a higher percentage of pXOR reduction 3 days after PCI. There was no association between these changes and long-term events.Conclusions
A significant change in pXOR activity was observed in patients undergoing PCI than in patients undergoing CAG, and there seems to be a correlation between the in-hospital outcomes and the percentage reduction from baseline in pXOR activity.
