Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Matrix metalloproteinase is responsible for ventricular remodeling after acute myocardial infarction (MI). The purpose of the present study was to determine whether the matrix metalloproteinase 3 (MMP-3) polymorphism and its level predict morbidity after acute MI (AMI). METHODS: We studied 112 patients with AMI and 140 controls. All patients were followed for AMI complications during their...
