| Popis: | Background Resistin is associated with atherosclerosis progression by affecting inflammation and insulin resistance. There are controversial data regarding the prognostic value of resistin in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Purpose We prospectively investigated the long-term prognostic value of resistin in patients with stable CAD. Methods A total 741 consecutive patients with stable CAD were followed for a median of 5.5 years. Serum resistin, lipids, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels were measured at baseline. Primary endpoints were cardiac death (CD) and secondary hospitalizations for acute coronary syndrome, arrhythmic event or stroke. Results Follow-up data were obtained from 703 patients of whom 79 had a CD (11.2%) and 205 (29.2%) met the secondary endpoints. Resistin was positively correlated with hsCRP (r=0.159, p Conclusions Resistin is an independent long-term predictor of CD in patients with stable CAD and MS.
