Linear and Nonlinear Associations Between Lipoprotein(a) and the Risks of Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease
Elevated Lp(a) concentrations were causally associated with ASCVD risk, showing a predominantly graded relationship with possible nonlinearity at very high levels, supporting routine Lp(a) measurement and the development of Lp(a)-lowering therapies.
