About This Study

What is High Lipoprotein(a)?

Lipoprotein(a), or Lp(a), is a type of cholesterol in the blood. High levels of Lp(a) are a genetic risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, including heart attack and stroke, as it can contribute to the buildup of fatty deposits in arteries. Elevated Lp(a) affects 1 in 5 people and is called "The Silent Killer", because it often shows no signs or symptoms. This is an internal medicine and cardiology trial.
