Cardio‐Renal Biomarker Soluble Urokinase‐Type Plasminogen Activator Receptor Is Associated With Cardiovascular Death and Myocardial Infarction in Pat…

Background Risk stratification among patients with coronary artery disease ( CAD ) is of considerable interest due to the potential to guide secondary preventive therapies. Thus, we evaluated the predictive value of soluble urokinase‐type plasminogen activator receptor (su PAR ) levels for cardiovascular mortality and nonfatal myocardial infarction in patients with CAD . Methods and Results Plasma levels of su PAR were measured in a cohort of 1703 patients with documented CAD as evidenced by coronary angiography—including 626 patients with acute coronary syndrome and 1077 patients with stable angina pectoris. Cardiovascular death and/or nonfatal myocardial infarction were defined as main o…
