Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Coagulation factor XI (FXI) is a promising therapeutic target for preventing thromboembolic disease while preserving hemostasis. However, recent translational and epidemiological findings have raised concerns that lowering FXI levels may increase heart failure risk. To clarify these potential risks, we investigated whether lifelong genetically reduced FXI levels were associated with risk of heart...
