Rise in Biomarkers by Use of Stent Type
Rise in CRP
After PCI • In a recent study by Gibson et al, drug-
4 eluting stent use was associated with
p=0.006 3.5 reductions in peri-procedural markers of
inflammation.
• PCI results in the upregulation of
CRP Rise post PCI (mg/L)

inflammatory cytokine production within
the vessel wall which in turn results in the
2.1 activation of inflammatory cells.
2 • Intereleukin-6 (IL-6) is a major stimulus
of CRP production and local release of IL-
