Cascade testing of children and adolescents for elevated Lp(a) in pedigrees with familial hypercholesterolaemia

17 Nov 2023

Abstract excerpt

Elevated plasma lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is a common, inherited condition independently causing cardiovascular disease. Recent expert recommendations suggest opportunistically testing for elevated Lp(a) during cascade testing for familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH). We investigated the effectiveness of detecting elevated Lp(a) in 103 children and adolescents who were first-degree relatives of 66 adult index FH...
