Figure 3. Inflammatory molecules in CIN and CVD. Inflammatory states have been associated with CIN and CVD risk factors. Inflammatory cells and molecules are considered as potential risk factors in CVD and CIN. Inflammatory risk factors highlighted in blue. CM, Disease states and cellular types related to inflammatory risk factors represented in grey. ↑: overproduction. CM: contrast media; RF: risk factors; AMI: acute myocardial infarction; ACS: acute coronary syndrome; IL: interleukin; CRP: C reactive protein; TNF-α: tumor necrotic factor-α; TLR4: toll like receptor 4; CIN: contrast induced nephropathy; CVD: cardiovascular disorders
