Why the study?

The thrombogenicity of disrupted atherosclerotic lesions depends on plaque components and tissue factor's role in this process needed examination.

Comparison

Different types of atherosclerotic plaques and their components

Design

Ex vivo perfusion study using Badimon chamber with heparinized blood and 111In-labeled platelets

Implication

Lipid-rich plaques exhibit highest thrombogenicity tied to tissue factor content; hypothesis-generating for targeted inhibition after disruption.
