Fig. 2 Correlation between sFAP level and a2AP N-terminal cleavage. A) Control population (n=298). B) Patient subgroups; CHD patients (n=222): open circles and dashed line, IS patients (n=125): closed squares and dotted line, PAD patients (n=31): gray diamonds and dash-dot-dash line. sFAP level is shown on a log scale.
