Abnormal platelet aggregation measured by screen filtration pressure (sfp) in coronary heart disease: a new risk factor? 1980

A Pagnan, and A Faggiotto, and I Bulian, and A Visoná, and C dal Palu

Platelet aggregate filtration pressure PAFP) has been measured in 38 male coronary heart disease patients (CHD) free from "risk factors" for the development of arteriosclerosis. Significantly (p less than 0.05) higher mean PAFP values (mmHg) were found in the CHD group as compared to the "control" group. Such finding suggests, though does not demonstrate, the "independent" role of platelet hyperaggregation in the development of CHD.
