Relation of Cytochrome P450 2C19 Loss-of-Function Polymorphism to Occurrence of Drug-Eluting Coronary Stent Thrombosis

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of the CYP2C19*2 polymorphism in the occurrence of stent thrombosis or the composite end point of ST and cardiac mortality within a 6-month follow-up in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions with drug-eluting stent implantation on dual-antiplatelet treatment enrolled in the RECLOSE trial.
Journal ArticleDOI

High levels of homocysteine, lipoprotein (a) and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 are present in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm.

TL;DR: A significant association between abnormal levels of some metabolic parameters related to thrombosis such as Hcy, Lp(a) and PAI-1 and AAA has been observed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic analysis of 56 polymorphisms in 17 genes involved in methionine metabolism in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm

TL;DR: After haplotype reconstruction, logistic regression analyses adjusted for traditional risk factors and COPD showed a significant association among AAA and AHCY, FOLH 1, MTHFD1, MTR, NNMT, PON1 and TYMS haplotypes, offering new insights into the pathogenesis of AAA.
Journal ArticleDOI

Low protein Z plasma levels are independently associated with acute coronary syndromes.

TL;DR: The results suggest a possible role of PZ in the occurrence of arterial thrombosis in patients with acute coronary syndromes.
