简要总结
There is an on-going discussion weather remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) is effective in limiting the damage of reperfusion injury in STEMI patients. The results from recent RCTs have been variable and most have not shown convincing positive results when analyzing hard endpoints. Hence, there is a great need to evaluate the impact of comorbidities on the effectiveness of RIC. Therefore, we have designed a study to evaluate the impact of hypercholesterolemia on the RIC response by evaluating ischemia-induced endothelial dysfunction.
Aim: To investigate the impact of hypercholesterolemia on the RIC response in counteracting ischemia-induced endothelial dysfunction.
