Assessment of the Relationship between Monocyte to High-Density Lipoprotein Ratio and Myocardial Bridge.
Assessing the monocyte to high-density lipoprotein ratio (MHR) is a new tool for predicting inflamation, which plays a major role in atherosclerosis. Myocardial bridge (MB) is thought to be a benign condition with development of atherosclerosis, particularly at the proximal segment of the brigde. ⋯ The present study revealed a significant correlation between MHR and MB.
