Increase of plasma fibrinogen levels and variability with age in a sample of middle aged healthy men.

Annals of human genetics - 1 Jan 2007

Drenos F, Miller G J, Humphries S E

Abstract excerpt

According to predictions from the current theoretical models for ageing the heterogeneity of the population is increasing with increasing age. Although the direct observation of such changes in humans is extremely difficult, supporting evidence should be identifiable in key biomarkers associated with health and mortality. Using data from the Northwick Park Heart Study II of 3052 healthy middle-aged men (mean 56...
