متن کاملRelationship between white blood cell count and circulating anti-endothelial cell antibodies detected in patients with peripheral arterial disease
Background and objectives: Circulating anti-endothelial cell antibodies (AECAs) are elevated in peripheral arterial disease (PAD) patients. In this context, these autoantibodies have been associated with the endothelial dysfunction and the pro-inflammatory status that surrounds atherosclerosis. On the other hand, white blood cell (WBC) count and inflammatory markers have been consistently assoc...
