Mattia Galli: Sex-related Differences in Platelet Reactivity in Patients Both On and Off Antiplatelet Therapy
Mattia Galli, Assistant Professor at Sapienza Università di Roma, Associate Editor of European Heart Journal, shared a proud post on LinkedIn:
”Sex-related differences in platelet reactivity are emerging as a relevant factor in patients both on and off antiplatelet therapy.
In these two recent contributions, published almost simultaneously, we present evidence from both randomized controlled trials and the largest pharmacodynamic study in this setting to date, suggesting that females may benefit from antiplatelet regimens different from those typically used in males.
This represents another important step forward in advancing precision medicine in cardiology.”
