Prothrombotic genetic risk factors and myocardial infarction at young age.
We have read with interest the report by Ardissino et al,1 which concludes that the presence of the PlA2 polymorphic allele is the only prothrombotic genetic factor associated with the risk of myocardial infarction at a young age. These authors find a significant interaction between the presence of the PlA2 allele and smoking. We studied 178 men younger than 50 years old who were diagnosed with...
متن کاملProthrombotic genetic risk factors in young survivors of myocardial infarction.
It has long been thought that an individual thrombotic tendency increases the risk of myocardial infarction, especially in young adults. Several "prothrombotic" genetic factors that may influence the individual thrombotic risk have been identified. To investigate the association between the risk of myocardial infarction at a young age and genetic factors thought to be associated with an increas...

متن کاملRisk factors for myocardial infarction in young women.
The interim results of a case-control study of myocardial infarction in women below age 55 years conducted in northern Italy since January 1983 are presented, based on 168 cases of acute myocardial infarction and 251 hospital controls. Cigarette smoking was strongly related to myocardial infarction, with risk estimates elevated more than 10-fold for heavy (more than 25 cigarettes per day) smoke...
