Abstract
Plasma fibrinogen values (n = 4,133) of hospitalized military veterans ranging in age from 20 to 100 years, and covering a span of 7 years, were examined for possible presence of weekly or yearly patterns. High est levels found at or near the weekend (Saturday to Monday) and durin g the late spring months coincided with published reports on increases in morbidity and mortality in subjects with cardiovascular and cerebr ovascular disorders.
