title: [Acute phase proteins and recurrence of angina after effective coronary angioplasty].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Analysis of relationships between clinical characteristics of the patients, high concentration of acute phase proteins--fibrinogen, C-reactive protein (CRP), activity of the inhibitor of type 1 plasminogen activator (PAI-1)--and frequency of angina recurrence after successful coronary angioplasty (CA).
  
  
  METHODS
  The trial included 53 patients after successful CA for a single hemodynamically significant stenosis. Peripheral blood was examined for plasm fibrinogen, CRP, activity of PAI-1 one day before and 2 days, 3 and 6 months after CA. After 12-month follow-up the patients were divided into two groups: angina-free patients (n = 37) and with recurrent angina (n = 16).
  
  
  RESULTS
  Significant differences between the above groups were in PAI-1 activity 3 and 6 months after CA, in CRP initially, on day 2, after 6 months after CA (p < 0.05) but multifactor analysis has found that only CRP level both initial and on day 2 after CA is an independent predictor of recurrent angina pectoris after successful CA.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  An anginal recurrence after successful CA can be predicted by the initial and postoperative day 2 levels of CRP.
