Abstract:Platelet survival times were studied in 40 patients (21 white and 19 black) with coronary artery disease and stable effort induced angina pectoris. The platelet survival times of 19 white controls (9.27 ± 0.49 days; mean ± SD) were not significantly different from those of 12 black controls (8.88 ± 0.81 days), and the platelet survival times for 21 white patients with coronary artery disease (8.46 ± 0.65 days) were lower than the times for both the white controls (p < 0.01) and the combined control group (p < … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
