STUDY OF LIPOPROTEIN (A) CONCENTRATIONS 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, divided into two groups: group I (150 subjects with coronary artery stenosis < 50%), group II (300 subjects with coronary artery stenosis ≥ 50%). Lipoprotein (a) concentration was test at the department of Biochemintry, Bach Mai hospital. The results show that lipoprotein (a) concentration is a non-standard distribution, in group II, lipoprotein (a) concentration (33,22 ± 50 nmol/l) was statistically significantly higher than in group I (22,99 ± 32,25 nmol/l). Lipoprotein (a) is a risk factor for atherosclerotic coronary artery disease with OR: 1,008; 95%CI: 1,003-1,014.
