Interrelationships among platelet‐activating factor and lipoprotein‐associated phospholipase A2 activity and traditional cardiovascular risk factors

BioFactors, Volume 49, Issue 2, Page 457-471, March/April 2023., 2023
Abstract Traditionally cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk has been assessed through blood lipids and inflammatory marker C‐reactive protein (hsCRP). Recent clinical interest in novel pro‐inflammatory markers platelet‐activating factor (PAF) and lipoprotein‐associated phospholipase A2 (Lp‐PLA2) recognizes that vascular damage can exist in the absence of ...
