Curious about the impact of Lp(a) on #cardiovascular risk? check the #ESCCongress session: esc365.escardio.org/ESC-Congress/s… simultaneous publication on #EHJOpen: doi.org/10.1093/ehjope… #OpenUpYourScience European Society of Cardiology Journals Salvatore De Rosa Magnus Bäck Thorsten Leucker Maciej Banach SABOURETCardiologist

Is it time we routinely remeasure Lp(a) for those w initial levels in the traditional “grey zone” (30-50 mg/dL, 75-125 nmol/L)? Surprising amount of intraindividual variability, and repeat msmt reclassified risk in 53% of pts. Excellent data from Tarek Harb at #ESCCongress2024


Thank you, Maciej Banach, for your outstanding editorial and thoughtful summary of our work on Lp(a) variability. Your insights and comprehensive overview of the current, albeit sparse, literature on this topic are invaluable. EHJOpen Editor-in-Chief Tarek Harb

👉🏻Our study suggests repeat Lp(a) tests 🧪could be crucial for those in the #society_eas intermediate risk group. 53% could be reclassified with a second test. Time to rethink cardiovascular risk assessment. European Atherosclerosis Society EHJOpen Editor-in-Chief American Heart Association American College of Cardiology Tarek Harb
