Associations Between Macrophage Colony‐Stimulating Factor and Monocyte Chemotactic Protein 1 in Plasma and First‐Time Coronary Events: A Nested Case–Control Study

Associations Between Macrophage Colony‐Stimulating Factor and Monocyte Chemotactic Protein 1 in Plasma and First‐Time Coronary Events: A Nested Case–Control Study

Background Myeloid cells play a central role in atherosclerosis. We investigated the associations between the plasma levels of growth factors and chemokines that regulate myeloid cell homeostasis and function and the risk of first‐time acute coronary events in middle‐aged persons. Methods and Result...
