Summary
The primary research objective of the project is to determine the role of eGC in microvascular reactivity in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) before and after bypass grafting (cross-sectional study 2).The main objective of the project is to increase the excellence and interdisciplinarity of scientific work at MEFOS by connecting researchers from different scientific fields, improving conditions and resources for scientific work, and increasing international cooperation, in line with strategic objective 1: raising scientific excellence. The results of the project could provide pathophysiological insight into the development and maintenance of endothelial dysfunction in CVD, as well as identify new biomarkers for CVD.
