Abstract
Parvovirus (PV) B19 DNA is detected in endothelial cells and may cause endothelial dysfunction, which is involved in in-stent restenosis. We aimed at performing an exploratory analysis that evaluated if PVB19 DNA at the culprit coronary stenosis would be associated with an increased rate of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) after coronary stenting.
