Abstract:
The present invention provides methods, systems, devices, panels, and software for determining values for two or more markers in order to characterize a subject's risk of developing cardiovascular disease or experiencing a complication thereof (e.g., within the ensuing one to three years), and for identifying subjects in need of preventative therapy (e.g., statins). In certain embodiments, the markers are selected from: hs-CRP, ACR, Lp-Pla2, MPO, fibrinogen, KIF6, and F2 isoprostanes.
