Impact of diabetes on risk of major adverse cardiovascular events associated with lipoprotein(a) levels in patients with established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease
Among atherosclerotic patients with and without T2DM, elevated Lp(a) level was significantly associated with a higher risk of MACE. Compared to those without T2DM, the patients with T2DM showed an excess MACE risk, suggesting the need for clinical interventions concerning both Lp(a) level and glycemic control.
