Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Plasma lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] levels are mainly genetically determined. The C93T polymorphism is a naturally occurring variant of the LPA gene that may influence Lp(a) concentration. The role of Lp(a) in the pathogenesis of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) has not been firmly established. METHODS: A total of 299 patients with PAD and 312 PAD-free control subjects were investigated. Genotyping of the...
