Diabetes Mellitus and Lipoprotein(a): A Determinant Interaction in Micro- and Macrovascular Damage
2025-11-17
Abstract excerpt
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is associated with a residual cardiovascular risk that persists even when lipid targets are achieved. Within this context, lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)], an LDL-like particle of genetic origin with pro-atherogenic and antifibrinolytic properties, emerges as a key determinant in the progression of both microvascular and macrovascular complications. Its structural homology with plasminogen promotes t...
