Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The relationship between lipoprotein(a) and restenosis after intracoronary stent implantation has been analysed by two specific studies, but the role of apoliprotein(a) polymorphism was not considered. The aim of the present prospective study was to evaluate whether lipoprotein(a) levels and apolipoprotein(a) phenotypes are predictors of restenosis after elective stent implantation in patients with de...
