| Objectives Infl ammation is involved in the pathogenesis of rheumatic mitral valve stenosis (RMVS). Pentraxin-3 (PTX3) indicates the infl ammatory state of humans. However, circulating PTX3 levels in patients with RMVS, remain largely unknown. In this study, we investigated whether there is an association between the severity of RMVS and PTX3.Methods All patients diagnosed as rheumatic mitral valvular stenosis between December 2013 and April 2014 were included in the study. We investigated circulating PTX3 and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) levels in patients with RMVS and healthy controls.Results The study population included 72 subjects (41 patients with RMVS and 31 healthy subjects, 56 female) with a mean age of 40 ± 13 years. Patients with RMVS had higher left atrial diameters than healthy subjects. PTX3 and hsCRP were signifi cantly higher in patients with RMVS when compared … |
