title: Activated factor VII levels in patients with angiographically confirmed coronary artery disease.
abstract: We have examined factor VIIa levels in consecutive consenting patients undergoing coronary angiography (n = 702) to determine if levels are related to the presence of coronary arterial narrowing and to the degree and extent of that narrowing. Both men and women with clinically defined coronary artery disease (> or = 50% stenosis in at least 1 vessel) had factor VIIa levels that were similar to men and women with less stenosis or normal coronary arteries.
