Conclusión: The Lp(a)-CatLet© synergy enhances MACCE risk stratification in ePCI-treated AMI, reflecting complementary pathobiological (Lp(a)-driven plaque vulnerability) and anatomical (CatLet©-quantified complexity) pathways. This dual-parameter approach could support post-PCI risk stratification and follow-up planning.

Conclusión: High Lp(a) is prevalent in the Polish population, and thus it is important to measure it routinely in each individual at least once in a lifetime and control all other known cardiovascular risk factors to decrease the overall risk.

Conclusión: Comprehensive assessment of anthropometric and biochemical biomarkers may be useful for early cardiovascular risk stratification in patients with arterial hypertension in Kazakhstan. The observed tendencies highlight potential region-specific features of cardiometabolic risk, warranting further investigation in larger cohorts.

Conclusión y Relevancia: Per the results of this cohort study, very high lipoprotein(a) levels correlated with increased 30-year risk of cardiovascular disease among healthy women. Screening for elevated lipoprotein(a) in the general population may be warranted.

Conclusión: Elevated Lp(a) is independently associated with long-term risk of stenotic/mixed SVD. These findings highlight Lp(a) as a promising biomarker of prosthetic valve vulnerability and support investigation of emerging Lp(a)-lowering therapies to improve valve durability.

Conclusión: In patients with HF, Lp(a) ≥30 mg/dL independently predicts the risk of cardiovascular death or HF hospitalization.

Conclusión: Lp(a) and IR each independently contribute to cardiovascular risk, with a combination offering improved risk stratification. This suggests that accounting for IR may enhance the assessment of Lp(a)-associated risk in the context of primary CVD prevention setting.

Conclusión: In statin-naïve elderly individuals with elevated LDL-C levels, male sex, cumulative LDL-C exposure, and high Lp(a) levels were independently associated with CAD. These findings underscore the potential utility of incorporating cumulative LDL-C and Lp(a) into risk stratification for older adults.

Conclusión: This genome-wide analysis of monogenic and polygenic FH causes confirms a complex and heterogeneous architecture of hypercholesterolaemia, with the LPA gene playing a significant role. Both Lp(a) and LDL-C should be measured for precision FH diagnosis. Specific therapies to lower Lp(a) should be targeted to those who will benefit most.
