    • Coronary thrombosis leading to myocardial infarction is a complex process involving the interaction of the arterial wall, the coagulation cascade, and platelets. Increased understanding of the molecular biology of thrombosis has prompted an evolution in antithrombotic therapy, from the early use of warfarin following myocardial infarction to agents targeting specific receptors or modulators in the thrombotic process. The complexity of thrombosis allows for numerous sites of pharmacologic… CONTINUE READING
