Abstract excerpt
Lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) with atherogenic and thrombotic properties has been frequently studied in diabetes, because a high cardiovascular risk has been reported both in type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Few studies have considered genetic factors, especially the isoforms of apolipoprotein(a). The aim of this work is to determine the distribution of apo(a) phenotypes in the serum of 148 diabetic patients (59 type 1, 89...
