Abstract
Background Factor VII (F VII) has been widely investigated as a risk factor for coronary atherosclerosis, however there is still debate about its role in the progression of coronary artery disease (CAD). In this study F VII levels were measured in patients with angiographically proven CAD and its relation with disease severity, coronary events and with other risk factors of coronary atherosclerosis were examined.
