Zusammenfassung: | Background
There is no consistent evidence to suggest the association of plasma lipoprotein(a) (Lp[a]) with long‐term mortality in patients undergoing coronary angiography (CAG) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Hypothesis
Level of Lp(a) is associated with long‐term mortality following CAG or PCI.
Methods
We enrolled 1684 patients with plasma Lp(a) data undergoing CAG or PCI between April 2009 and December 2013. The patients were divided into 2 groups: a low‐Lp(a) group (Lp[a] |
