Kidney function-dependent plasma proteomic architecture of incident myocardial infarction: a proteome-wide association study of UK Biobank participants

Article C Peer reviewed Observational

Key takeaways

This study looked at blood samples from 33,446 people to find links between proteins and heart attacks. It found that the connection between certain proteins and heart attacks changes based on kidney function. This shows a link, not proof of cause. It helps explain why people with kidney disease have higher heart risks.
