Moreover, PAI-1 plasma levels were significantly higher in VA, NVA and CAD groups than in controls (figure 4), being higher in 100%, 91% and 100% of patients, respectively, and were significantly although modestly correlated with t-TFPI and vWF plasma levels (r:0.329, p = 0.008, and r:0.299, p = 0.015. The gene discussed is TFPI; the disease is coronary artery disorder.
