Abstract
Background
Inflammation contributes to both coronary heart disease (CHD) and dry eye disease (DED). Recognizing the relationship between CHD and DED is critical for maintaining ocular health in CHD patients. As a result, early monitoring of natriuretic peptides and inflammatory biomarkers may help minimize DED in CHD patients. This study aims to investigate brain-type natriuretic peptide and inflammatory biomarkers in blood in CHD-DED.
