[Retracted] Improved Cardiac Function and Attenuated Inflammatory Response by Additional Administration of Tirofiban during PCI for ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction Patients

Figure 1

Comparison of the levels of CRP, TNF-α, IL-6, and PCT between the PCI + tirofiban and PCI groups before PCI, at days 7 and 30 following PCI. A total of 124 patients with STEMI were randomly assigned to PCI + tirofiban and PCI groups, 62 cases per groups. , ^# compared with before PCI and day 7 after PCI. CRP, C reactive protein; TNF-α, tumor necrosis factor-α; IL-6, interleukin-6; PCT, procalcitonin.
