| Abstract: | Background Immunoadsorption (IA) is used in patients with chronic inflammatory dilative cardiomyopathy (iDCM) to remove cardiotoxic autoantibodies, and to improve myocardial function. We examined the effects of IA on endothelial function, circulating endothelial progenitor cells, and circulating microparticles, including endothelial-derived microparticles, in patients with chronic iDCM. |
