Abstract
Patients of the AA-308 TNFα genotype showed significantly higher TNFα plasma levels. Higher plasma levels of TNFα were associated with less favorable outcome after coronary revascularization surgery. It may prove useful to utilize TNFα serum levels as a marker for identifying high-risk patients in the future.
