Fig. 2From: Concomitant elevated serum levels of tenascin, MMP-9 and YKL-40, suggest ongoing remodeling of the heart up to 3 months after cardiac surgery after normalization of the revascularization markersEvolution of revascularization markers for tissue turnover after cardiac surgery. Serum MCP-1 continue to increase after cardiac surgery at 7 days and 3 months A after surgery. Epiregulin levels were highly variable B, while VEGF post-operative variability did not reach the level of statisticl significance C. * denotes p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001Back to article page
