    Abstract : Risk stratification is valuable in patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD). Proteins involved in different pathophysiological processes in atherosclerosis have shown prognostic capacity. A new technology, Proximity Extension Assay (PEA), enables the simultaneous analysis of numerous plasma proteins from a minimal amount of plasma. READ MORE
