Elevated plasma fibrinogen: cause or consequence of cardiovascular disease?
An association between increased plasma fibrinogen and an increased risk for myocardial infarction (MI) is well established, but the nature of this association is subject to debate. Our aim was to shed light on the potentially causal nature of this association. We examined whether increased plasma fibrinogen, due to a condition that is independent of cardiovascular events, also increases the ri...
متن کاملElevated plasma fibrinogen and diabetes mellitus are associated with lower inhibition of platelet reactivity with clopidogrel.
OBJECTIVES The goal of this study was to identify factors associated with lower platelet inhibition (PI) with clopidogrel in subjects with cardiovascular disease (CVD). BACKGROUND A heterogeneous platelet reactivity response to clopidogrel exists, and the clinical or biochemical predictors of suboptimal PI with clopidogrel remain unclear. METHODS This study prospectively enrolled subjects w...
متن کاملElevated plasma fibrinogen, psychological distress, antidepressant use, and hospitalization with depression: two large population-based studies.
OBJECTIVES Low-grade systemic inflammation may contribute to the development of depression. We tested the hypothesis that elevated plasma levels of the inflammatory marker fibrinogen are associated with psychological distress, use of antidepressant medication, and with hospitalization with depression in the general population. METHODS We examined 73,367 20-100 year old men and women from two ...
متن کاملElevated plasma fibrinogen levels and prognosis of epithelial ovarian cancer: a cohort study and meta-analysis
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of elevated plasma fibrinogen levels on the prognosis of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). METHODS We reviewed the data of 217 patients with advanced-stage EOC between 2000 and 2012, and investigated the prognostic role of elevated plasma fibrinogen levels compared with serum CA-125 levels, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet to lymphocyte ratio (...
متن کاملElevated plasma fibrinogen in clinically asymptomatic unicentric Castleman's disease: a case report.
This is the first report of an early association between elevated fibrinogen and asymptomatic unicentric Castleman's disease (CD). A 49-year-old asymptomatic female who was serving as a normal control in an unrelated study was incidentally found to have significantly elevated levels of plasma fibrinogen. Upon further investigation with computer tomography scans and magnetic resonance imaging, t...
