Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Janelle Owens"
- Janelle Owens' research predominantly focuses on the role of factor XIIIa and thrombelastography in predicting ischemic events and understanding platelet functions in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or suffering from coronary artery disease.
- Her studies reveal significant relationships between genetic polymorphisms, inflammation markers like C-reactive protein, and thrombotic risks post-PCI, highlighting how these factors contribute to the stability of fibrin clots and potential recurrent myocardial infarctions.
- Owens' work further explores the impact of pharmacogenetics on clopidogrel response in patients, elucidating how variations in specific genes can alter treatment efficacy and influence platelet aggregation during acute coronary syndromes.
