Subclinical coronary atherosclerosis in asymptomatic Filipino and white women.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Myocardial infarction (MI) is an ischemic wound that recruits millions of leukocytes. MI-associated blood leukocytosis correlates inversely with patient survival, yet the signals driving heightened leukocyte production after MI remain incompletely understood. METHODS AND RESULTS:With the use of parabiosis s...
