Fig. 3From: Cardiovascular disease in Alpha 1 antitrypsin deficiency: an observational study assessing the role of neutrophil proteinase activity and the suitability of validated screening toolsThe relationship between AαVAL541 and aPWV or QRISK2® score in AATD. AαVAL541 is measured in nM. Each dot represents one person’s data. Spearman’s Correlation was applied. Although both aPWV and QRISK2® related to the proteinase 3 activity footprint, the relationship with aPWV was stronger (Rho 0.5724 (p < 0.0001) vs. Rho 0.1876 (p = 0.0124), respectively)Back to article page
