Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and Myeloperoxidase (MPO) Levels in Patients with Nonobstructive Coronary Artery Disease Detected by Coronary Computed Tomographic Angiography

Levels of MMP-9 and MPO are positively correlated with Framingham risk score. Additionally, in patients with nonobstructive coronary artery disease, elevated levels of MMP-9 and MPO may identify patients at risk for future myocardial infarction or sudden cardiac death.
