STUDY OF LIPOPROTEIN (A) CONCENTRATIONS ≥125 NMOL/L IN PATIENTS WITH ATHEROSCLEROTIC CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE
Main Article Content
Abstract
A cross-sectional descriptive study of 450 subjects with a diagnosis of chronic coronary artery syndrome at Huu Nghi hospital. Lipoprotein (a) concentration was test at the department of Biochemintry, Bach Mai hospital. The study results showed that the proportion of subjects with Lp (a) concentration ≥ 125 nmol/l was 6,9%, of which the proportion with coronary artery stenosis ≥ 50% accounted for 87,1%. The risk of atherosclerotic coronary artery disease was 3,61 times higher when Lp (a) concentration ≥ 125 nmol/l (OR: 3,61; 95%CI: 1,239-10,515). Women with Lp (a) concentration ≥ 125 nmol/l had a 4,902 times higher risk of atherosclerotic coronary artery disease (OR: 4,902; 95%CI: 1,054 – 22,798).
