The junctional protein associated with coronary artery disease predicts adverse cardiovascular events in patients with acute coronary syndromes at high residual risk
Patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) are at high ischaemic risk to which cholesterol, inflammation, and yet-to-be- identified pathways jointly contribute. The junctional protein associated with coronary artery disease (JCAD) drives incident cardiovascular events by acting on coagulation and fibrinolysis. This study aimed to assess whether JCAD serves as a novel marker of or target to address residual risk.
