α1-Antichymotrypsin Complex (SERPINA3) Is an Independent Predictor of All-Cause but Not Cardiovascular Mortality in Patients Hospitalized for Chest Pain of Suspected Coronary Origin
Nilsen, Dennis WT; Aarsetøy, Reidun; Pønitz, Volker; Ueland, Thor; Aukrust, Pål; Michelsen, Annika Elisabet; Andersen, Trygve Brugger; Staines, Harry; Grundt, Heidi (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Introduction: SERPINA3 is an acute phase protein triggered by inflammation.
