High lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] concentrations are an independent risk factor for cardiovascular
outcomes. Concentrations are strongly influenced by apo (a) kringle IV repeat isoforms. We …

Objective: Lipoprotein (a)(Lp [a]) is associated with coronary artery disease (CAD) but also
to LDL (low-density lipoprotein) cholesterol. The genetic architecture of Lp (a) remains …

Abstract High lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] concentrations are one of the most important genetically
determined risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Lp (a) concentrations are an enigmatic …

Abstract Lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] is an independent risk factor for atherosclerosis-related
events that is under strong genetic control (heritability= 0.68–0.98). However, causal …

Objective: Lp (a)(lipoprotein [a]) is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases
and plasma levels are primarily determined by variation at the LPA locus. We performed a …

Abstract Background Lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] is one of the residual risk factors for
cardiovascular disease (CVD) in the setting of optimal low-density lipoprotein cholesterol …

Abstract Lipoprotein (a)(Lp (a)) is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Lp
(a) levels in African Americans (AAs) are much higher compared with that in European …

In 2010, more than 45 years after the initial discovery of lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] by Kare Berg,
an European Atherosclerosis Society Consensus Panel recommended screening for …

Lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)], is present only in humans, Old World nonhuman primates, and the
European hedgehog. Lp (a) has many properties in common with low-density lipoprotein …

Background—Serum lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] concentration is largely determined by variability
at the apolipoprotein (a) gene locus. Most prominent effects relate to polymorphisms in the …
