Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Protein profiling of HDL will be done using SELDI-TOF mass spectrometry. Additional laboratory testing will include determination of lipid spectrum (HDL-c, LDL-c, triglycerides, apo A1, apoB, total cholesterol), measurements of coagulation markers (aPTT, PT, protein S, activated protein C, F1+2, factor VIII, vWF), markers of fibrinolysis (ddimer) and inflammatory markers (CRP, Il-6, TNF-a, MCP, Leucocytes, SAA). | — |
