Baseline characteristics of the study population according to platelet aggregation using Multiplate Analyzer, 1.0 mM arachidonic acid, n = 581.

Data is presented as mean±SD, n(%) or median 25%;75%). B: blood, S: serum, P: plasma, ACE: Angiotensin converting enzyme. Patients were divided into two subgroups on the basis of the median (163 AU*min) of AA-induced platelet aggregation using the Multiplate Analyzer. *Out of 145 patients with type 2 diabetes. Baseline characteristics of the study population according to platelet aggregation using Multiplate Analyzer, 1.0 mM arachidonic acid, n = 581.
