Abstract

Ticagrelor is a reversible and direct-acting oral antagonist of the adenosine diphosphate receptor P2Y12. Possible adenosine-mediated effects of ticagrelor on inflammation are complex and incompletely understood. To our knowledge, ticagrelor-induced systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) has not yet been described. We report the case of an 84 years old patient presenting with SIRS subsequent to initiation of ticagrelor after implantation of two drug eluting stents. A broad diagnostic work-up for alternative causes and therapeutic measures were unrevealing. Discontinuation of the agent was followed by rapid improvement in clinical and laboratory signs of SIRS. After exclusion of other causes, ticagrelor needs to be considered as a possible causative agent for SIRS. Due to the widespread use of ticagrelor, clinicians should be aware of this possible adverse drug reaction.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 08 January 2017.
All research outputs
#17,855,900
of 22,931,367 outputs
Outputs from BMC Cardiovascular Disorders
#1,063
of 1,622 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#293,424
of 420,293 outputs
Outputs of similar age from BMC Cardiovascular Disorders
#32
of 42 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,931,367 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,622 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.9. This one is in the 31st percentile – i.e., 31% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 420,293 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 26th percentile – i.e., 26% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 42 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
