“…hs-CRP is an indicator of inflammatory state, and the level of hs-CRP can change with the characteristics of coronary plaque, which is a predictor of coronary disease-related mortality [ 25 ]. FIB can promote the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells and the formation of atherosclerotic plaques, which is an indicator of thrombosis [ 26 ]. There have been many studies on IL-18, MMP-9, hs-CRP, and FIB in ACS in the past.…”

“…Subtypes of CAD may affect the association of fibrinogen level with clinical prognosis. [ 17 ] Our subgroup analysis showed that the prognostic value of fibrinogen level in predicting MACEs was statistically significant in stable CAD patients but not in those with ACS. However, whether fibrinogen has a distinct effect on the prognosis of the subtypes of ACS should be further investigated in future studies.…”

“…There was no significant heterogeneity across the studies ( I 2 = 5.2%; P = .377). Five studies [ 9 , 11 , 17 , 18 , 22 ] provided data on association of elevated fibrinogen level with all-cause mortality (Fig. 3 B).…”
