Are elevated levels of circulating DNA and chromatin independently associated with severe coronary atherosclerosis and a prothrombotic state?
Our report provides evidence demonstrating that markers of cell death and neutrophil extracellular trap formation are independently associated with coronary artery disease, prothrombotic state, and occurrence of adverse cardiac events. These biomarkers could potentially aid in the prediction of cardiovascular risk in patients with chest discomfort.
