Lipoprotein(a) as a predictor of major adverse cardiovascular events in patients with very premature (≤40 years) acute coronary syndrome: long-term follow-up of the STudy of eArly Myocardial INfArction study

Elevated Lp(a) concentrations demonstrate an independent association with recurrent MACE among very young ACS survivors. Until targeted Lp(a)-lowering treatments become clinically available, an aggressive lipid-lowering approach may be warranted to partially attenuate Lp(a)-related residual cardiovascular risk.

Abstract

Elevated Lp(a) concentrations demonstrate an independent association with recurrent MACE among very young ACS survivors. Until targeted Lp(a)-lowering treatments become clinically available, an aggressive lipid-lowering approach may be warranted to partially attenuate Lp(a)-related residual cardiovascular risk.
