Lipoprotein (a) and myocardial infarction: impact on long-term mortality
Lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] is a genetically regulated lipoprotein particle that is an independent risk factor for coronary atherosclerotic heart disease. However, the correlation between Lp(a) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in patients with myocardial infarction (MI) has been poorly stud...

Zusammenfassung: | Lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] is a genetically regulated lipoprotein particle that is an independent risk factor for coronary atherosclerotic heart disease. However, the correlation between Lp(a) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in patients with myocardial infarction (MI) has been poorly studied. The present study investigated the correlation between Lp(a) and LVEF, as well as the impact of Lp(a) on long-term mortality in patients with MI.
Patients who underwent coronary angiography resulting in MI diagnosis between May 2018 and March 2020 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University were included in this study. The patients were divided into groups based on the Lp(a) concentration and LVEF (reduced ejection fraction group: |
