Effect of colchicine on Neutrophil to Lymphocyte ratio and Cardiac Function in Non-Diabetic Patients Post STEMI Using Speckle Tracking Imaging

Document Type : Abstracts

Abstract

Acute myocardial ischemia causes myocardial
necrosis with subsequent endogenous 
inflammation, leading to myocardial damage,
ventricular dilation, and dysfunction. 
Colchicine is an inexpensive, orally
administered and potent anti-inflammatory 
medication, so our study aimed to investigate
the effect of colchicine on inflammatory
markers including NLR and cardiac function in 
STEMI non-diabetic patients.
