Effects of prospective, randomized cholesterol-lowering dietary intervention and apolipoprotein E phenotype on serum lipoprotein(a) concentrations of infants aged 7-24 mo.

Abstract excerpt

A high serum lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] concentration is associated with increased risk of coronary artery disease. Few external factors are able to markedly modify serum Lp(a) concentrations. The aim of this study was to evaluate how serum Lp(a) concentrations of infants between 7 and 24 mo of age change in a cholesterol-lowering dietary intervention, and to assess the influence of apolipoprotein (apo) E phenotypes...
