Why the study?
Does nicotinic acid improve haemostatic function and serum lipoproteins in men with hypertriglyceridaemia?
Does nicotinic acid improve haemostatic function and serum lipoproteins in men with hypertriglyceridaemia?
High-dose nicotinic acid treatment in hypertriglyceridaemic men not only improves lipid profiles but also favorably shifts the fibrinolytic balance by reducing plasma fibrinogen and stimulating fibrinolysis.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Nicotinic acid was associated with improved fibrinolytic markers in hypertriglyceridaemic men; hypothesis-generating and requires randomized confirmation.
Johansson et al. (1997) studied this question.
