Improvement in circulating endothelial progenitor cells pool after cardiac resynchronization therapy: increasing the list of benefits
Abstract Background Recent studies suggest that circulating endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) may influence the response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of CRT on EPC levels and to assess the impact of EPCs on long-term clinical outcomes...
