Abstract excerpt

AIM: Previous studies suggest that circulating levels of interleukin-18 (IL-18) may be prospectively related to risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) in the general population. We report new data from the largest prospective study to date, which are combined with data from all published prospective studies in a meta-analysis. METHODS: We measured baseline IL-18 levels in stored serum samples of subjects from a...
