Association between lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) levels and Lp(a) genetic variants with coronary artery calcification

Association between lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) levels and Lp(a) genetic variants with coronary artery calcification

Abstract Background To examine the association between lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) levels, LPA (rs10455872 and rs3798220) and IL1F9 (rs13415097) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with coronary artery calcification (CAC), an important predictor for coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods We used data...
