Hemostatic factors and risk of coronary heart disease in general populations: new prospective study and updated meta-analyses.
<h4>Background</h4>Activation of blood coagulation and fibrinolysis may be associated with increased risk of coronary heart disease. We aimed to assess associations of circulating tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) antigen, D-dimer and von Willebrand factor (VWF) with coronary heart dis...
