A study in humans with coronary artery disease identified the miR-3124-5p as a biomarker for recurrent myocardial infarction risk, where it was downregulated in whole blood of patients with recurrent MI compared to those without, remaining significant after false-discovery rate correction (FDR <0.1) in a replication cohort, though it was not significantly different in plasma samples [Onuoha et al.
