Katie Harris and Colleagues: Coagulation Factors VIII and IX as Predictors of Cardiovascular Events and Mortality

Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis (JTH) shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Coagulation factors VIII and IX as predictors of cardiovascular events and mortality

By Katie Harris, Mark Woodward, Aaron Folsom, Pamela Lutsey, Ethan Cannon, Neil A Zakai, Mary Cushman, Nels C. Olson, Nithya Kannan, Ryan Packer, Katherine Wilkinson, Sasiwarang Goya Wannamethee, Christopher C. Patterson, Yoav Ben-Shlomo, and Gordon Lowe

Elevated coagulation factor levels are increasingly recognized as markers of vascular risk, yet their independent contribution to cardiovascular disease (CVD) outcomes remains debated.

In this meta-analysis (32,123 participants; 8,888 CVD cases), each SD increase in FVIII was associated with a 12% higher CVD risk and 16–17% higher CVD and all-cause mortality. FIX showed weaker associations—linked to mortality but not incident CVD.

Title: Associations between plasma levels of coagulation factors VIII and IX and incident cardiovascular disease and mortality: systematic review and meta-analysis
