Abstract
Protein S (PS) and protein C (PC) anticoagulant activities and thrombin-antithrombin complex (TAT) were measured in 20 patients with AIS, 25 patients with chronic stable angina (CSA) and a control group (C). Although plasma levels of TAT were significantly elevated in patients with CSA (p p>0.005 vs C). In addition, the ratios of anticoagulant PC and PS to factor IX were lower in patients with AIS than in those with CSA (p
