The Role of Lipoprotein(a) in Cardiovascular Risk Stratification: Integrating Low-density Lipoprotein Cholesterol and Polygenic Risk Scores

Aug 8, 2026 by in CARDIOLOGY Comments Off on The Role of Lipoprotein(a) in Cardiovascular Risk Stratification: Integrating Low-density Lipoprotein Cholesterol and Polygenic Risk Scores
High-density lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) is a well-established independent risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ASCVD). However, the interaction between Lp(a), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and polygenic risk score (PRS) in cardiovascular…
