Traditional risk factors, optimal cardiovascular health, and elevated lipoprotein(a)
Participants without clinical ASCVD who achieved an optimal LS7 score had ASCVD risk reduction regardless of Lp(a) level. These results emphasize the importance of a healthy lifestyle and ASCVD risk factor control among individuals with elevated Lp(a).
