The effect of the duration of clopidogrel use on hsCRP levels after stenting the target vessel in patients with acute coronary syndrome
Bibliographic record
Abstract
PURPOSE: The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between the duration of clopidogrel use and the inflammation process after acute coronary syndrome in patients who received bare metal stent (BMS) or drug eluting stent (DES). METHOD: Sixty patients with acute coronary syndrome who received a stent were divided into three groups: 20 patients with BMS receiving clopidogrel for one month (BMS1 group), 20 patients with BMS receiving clopidogrel for 6 months (BMS6 group), and 20 patients with DES receiving clopidogrel for 6 months (DES group). High sensitive C-reactive protein (hsCRP, mg/dL) was measured at baseline, and then at first, third and sixth post-operative month. RESULTS: The inital hsCRP levels were similar and decreased significantly in all groups by one month of clopidogrel treatment (from 7.1±1.9 to 3.8±2.3 in BMS1 group, p=0,002, from 6.5±2.8 to 4.3±2.5 in BMS6 group, p= 0,01 and from 7.7±2 to 3.6±2.4 in DES group, p < 0.001). In the BMS1 group, after termination of the clopidogrel therapy after the first month, hsCRP levels increased again at the third and sixth months. In the BMS6 and DES groups, hsCRP levels continued to show a decrease at the third month and sixth months. CONCLUSIONS: Clopidogrel decreases hsCRP levels in patients with acute coronary syndrome. It might be desirable to lengthen the duration of the clopidogrel therapy to maintain its anti-inflammatory effects.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
