Text: Despite no significant difference in total distance walked between patients and controls, vWf (162 (45) before v 170 (48) UI/dl after) and fibrinogen (2. 9 (0. 7) v 3. 1 (0. 7) g/l) concentrations, plasma viscosity (1. 63 (0. 12) v 1. 71 (0. 14) mPa. s), and D-dimer (0. 20 (interquartile range 0. 10-0. 30) v 0. 21 (0. 12-0. 31 mg/l ; all p < 0. 05), but not soluble P-selectin, were significantly increased after ISWT in patients with CAD, even after correction for plasma volume change.
