title: [Determination and clinical significance of lipoprotein(a) in cardio-cerebrovascular diseases].
abstract: We determined the level of lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] in 1,266 healthy persons and established the reference value of Lp(a) in various groups of age and sex. The analysis of lipids in myocardial infarction survivors and stroke survivors suggest that increased Lp(a) is an independent risk factor in cardio-cerebrovascular diseases. The characteristics of abnormal lipids in cardio-cerebrovascular diseases are discussed.
