Lipoprotein(a) and Coronary Calcification: Prognostic Implications in Rotational Atherectomy Patients
In patients with severe calcification undergoing RA, Lp(a) ≥ 50 ml/dL was independently associated with MACE but not with CVD, except when Lp(a) was markedly elevated (≥ 68.3 mg/dL). Additionally, Lp(a) was found to predict a higher risk of MACE in smokers and patients with comorbidities.
