Among others, coenzyme Q10 levels and inflammation parameters were assessed, and heart function was evaluated during a 6-month follow-up visit. It was found that coenzyme Q10 supplementation significantly counteracted the decline of coenzyme Q10 induced by the surgery. Furthermore, the supplement helped protect the heart tissue and minimize oxidative stress due to its antioxidative function.
