Notwithstanding disease severity and heart ejection fraction, significant predictors of myocardial infarction included elevated concentrations of the circulating biomarkers of platelet activation, soluble CD40 ligand, P-selectin (CD62P) and thromboxane B2 (a surrogate for thromboxane A2), as well as the mean platelet volume [28]. Here, SELP is linked to myocardial infarction.
