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)] represents an LDL-like particle to which the Lp (a)-specific
apolipoprotein (a) is linked via a disulfide bridge. It has gained considerable interest as a …

Abstract High lipoprotein (a)(Lp (a)) serum concentrations and the underlying apolipoprotein
(a)(apo (a)) phenotypes are risk factors for cardiovascular disease in the general population …

Aims We aimed to (1) assess the association between lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] concentration
and incident type-2 diabetes in the Bruneck study, a prospective population-based study …

High plasma concentrations of lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a), which is encoded by the APOA gene]
increase an individual's risk of developing diseases, such as coronary artery diseases …

Patients with end-stage renal disease treated by hemodialysis have a tremendous risk for
cardiovascular complications that cannot be explained by traditional atherosclerosis risk …

High plasma concentrations of lipoprotein [a](Lp [a]) are considered a genetically
determined risk factor for atherosclerosis. Lp [a] is produced by the liver. The site (s) and …

Objective.—To investigate the association between lipoprotein (a)[Lp (a)] and other plasma
lipids and apolipoproteins and target-organ damage (TOD) in patients with arterial …

Most studies aiming to detect associations of genetic variation with common complex
diseases, eg coronary heart disease (CHD) have been performed in populations with a …

Abstract Purpose of Review Lipoprotein (a) has emerged as a strong independent risk factor
for cardiovascular disease. Targeted screening recommendations for Lp (a) measurement …
