CA 2478436

A novel method for assessing the risk of cardiovascular event is provided. The concentration of 11-dehydro thromboxane in a urine sample is measured and compared to a set of standardized quartile concentrations. A concentration of urinary 11-dehydro thromboxane that falls within the fourth quartile is indicative of a greatly increased risk of a recurrent cardiovascular event.

L'invention concerne un nouveau procédé d'évaluation du risque d'apparition d'un événement cardio-vasculaire. La teneur en 11-déshydro thromboxane dans un échantillon d'urine est mesurée et comparée à un ensemble de concentration normalisée en quartiles. Si la teneur en 11-déshydro thromboxane urinaire atteint le quatrième quartile, elle indique un risque considérablement accru d'apparition d'un événement cardio-vasculaire récurrent.
