The association of lipoprotein(a) and intraplaque neovascularization in patients with carotid stenosis: a retrospective study
Abstract Background Lipoprotein(a) is genetically determined and increasingly recognized as a major risk factor for arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease. We examined whether plasma lipoprotein(a) concentrations were associated with intraplaque neovascularization (IPN) grade in patients with carot...
