pubmed-article:15192246 | pubmed:abstractText | Increased soluble thrombomodulin (sTM) concentration has been associated with recurrent coronary events, whereas in one prospective study it predicted fewer first-ever coronary events. One study found no relationship between brain infarction (BI) and sTM levels. Among all subjects of the Etude du Profil Génétique de l'Infarctus Cérébral (GENIC) cohort and those free of previous vascular history, we investigated the relationship between sTM level and BI risk, and among cases, its relationship with BI prognosis. | lld:pubmed |
