Abstract Background Low concentrations of IgM-phosphorylcholine autoantibodies (IgM-anti-
PC) have been shown to be associated with increased risk of incident cardiovascular
disease (CVD) events and total mortality in patients suffering from an acute coronary
syndrome. We assessed whether IgM-anti-PC concentrations add prognostic information for
cardiovascular risk in patients with known stable coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods
IgM-anti-PC concentrations were measured in serum obtained from 1062 patients with …
