Is in-Hospital Tele-ECG Triage and Interventional Cardiologist Activation of the Infarct Team for STEMI Patients Associated with Improved Late Clinical Outcomes?
In-hospital tele-ECG triage and interventional cardiologist activation can shorten D2BT and is associated with improved late clinical outcomes during a 3-year follow-up in STEMI patients undergoing PPCI.
Our results suggest that hyperglycemia down-regulates CD33 expression and triggers the spontaneous secretion of TNF-α by peripheral monocytes. This phenomenon involves the generation of ROS and the up-regulation of SOCS-3. These observations support the importance of blood glucose control for maintaining innate immune function and suggest the participation of CD33 in the inflammatory profile associated with type 2 diabetes.
