The Relationship Between Coronary Artery Ectasia and PAI-1 4G/5G Gene Polymorphisms

2026-08-21

Abstract excerpt

Abstract Background: Coronary artery ectasia (CAE) is defined as diffuse or segmental dilatation of the coronary artery exceeding 1.5 times greater than the normal adjacent vessel diameter. The etiology of CAE is still not clarified. Higher plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) concentrations have been related to aortic aneurysms, possibly resulting from occlusion of vasa vasorum, followed by diminished vessel...
