Glycoprotein Ibalpha polymorphism T145M, elevated lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2, and hypertriglyceridemia predict risk for recurrent coronary events in diabetic postinfarction patients.

Abstract excerpt

To explore altered platelet function in recurrent coronary event risk among diabetic postinfarction patients, we investigated a function-altering genetic polymorphism (T145M) in the von Willebrand factor binding region of the platelet glycoprotein Ibalpha (GPIbalpha) subunit. The study comprised...
