Abstract excerpt

Increased plasma fibrinogen concentration is a major cardiovascular risk factor. Conflicting results on genetic variations in plasma fibrinogen levels have been reported. Furthermore, whether fibrinogen genotype is associated with the risk of ischemic heart disease has not been studied so far. An...
