Abstract

In this study we explored the clinical value of detection of plasma von Willebrand factor(vWF)in patients with coronary artery disease(CAD).We enrolled 104in-hospital patients with CAD and 96control subjects with health examination in clinic service.Their plasma vWF level and serum TC,TG,HDL-C and LDL-C were measured.The vWF,LDL-C and TC level in CAD group were statistically much higher than those in control group(P0.05).The morbidity of CAD in group of lipids normal with vWF150% was higher than that in control group.It indicated that elevated vWF level may be an independent risk factor for occurrence of CAD which blood lipids was not increased.
