We investigated whether the prothrombotic markers D-dimer, pro-thrombin fragment 1 + 2 (F1 + 2) and endogenous thrombin potential (ETP) are associated with myocardial necrosis assessed by Troponin T (TnT), and left ventricular impairment assessed by left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and N-terminal pro b-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP). This evidence concerns the gene NPPB and Myocardial necrosis.
