dc.description.abstractBackground: Coronary slow flow phenomenon (CSFP) is characterized by delay in the progression of contrast material in the coronary tree that is not accompanied by significant coronary artery narrowing. Pathophysiologic pathways underpinning CSFP still remain poorly understood. Objectives: To evaluate the relationship between serum galectin-3 (GAL-3) and growth differentiation factor-15 Methods: Fifty CSFP patients and 40 subjects with normal coronary arteries were included in this retrospective study. The patients' serum GDF-15 and GAL-3 concentration levels were measured using relevant kits. Thrombolysis in myocardial infarction frame count (TFC) of each patients was determined. Results: We did not find any differences with respect to clinical and demographic features between the two groups. GDF-15 and GAL-3 concentration levels were significantly higher in the patients with CSFP. Moreover GDF-15 and GAL-3 concentration levels were positively correlated with TFC (GDF-15; r = 0.448, GAL-3; r = 0.642, p < 0.001 for both). Multivariate logistic regression showed that GAL-3 and GDF-15 were predictors of the CSFP. Similarly, GDF15 and GAL-3 were the only predictors of TFC. More specifically, GDF-15 and GAL-3 concentration levels of 182.18 pg/mL and 8.58 ng/mL predicted CSFP with sensitivities of 76% and 87.5%, respectively, and specificities of 84% and 75%, respectively. Conclusions: GDF-15 and GAL-3 levels were increased in the CSFP patients and predicted the presence and severity of CSFP. Thus, these two biomarkers might prove useful in relation to the diagnosis of CSFP.en_US
