Abstract excerpt

Elevated levels of lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] and the presence of small isoforms of apolipoprotein(a) [apo(a)] have been associated with coronary artery disease (CAD) in whites but not in African Americans. Because of marked race/ethnicity differences in the distribution of Lp(a) levels across apo(a) sizes, we tested the hypothesis that apo(a) isoform size determines the association between Lp(a) and CAD. We related...
