Fig. 3From: 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 vascular inflammation after cardiac surgery. Serum RANTES declined after cardiac surgery with nadir at 3 months A. Conversely, CCL-28 increased post-operatively at 7 days and 3 months B. IL-15 had tenedncy to be diminished in immidiate perioperative period with recovery to pre-operative baseline at 3 months C. * denotes p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001Back to article page
