Why the study?
Is the presence of coronary risk factors associated with impaired platelet-derived nitric oxide release in human subjects?
Is the presence of coronary risk factors associated with impaired platelet-derived nitric oxide release in human subjects?
Corary risk factors, particularly smoking, age, and mean arterial pressure, are independently associated with impaired platelet-derived nitric oxide release, providing a potential pathophysiological link to atherothrombotic disease.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Multiple coronary risk factors were associated with lower PDNO release; leaves open mechanistic role in atherothrombosis, requiring prospective confirmation.
Ikeda et al. (2000) studied this question.
