In the last micro-class of lipoprotein(a) master class, We interpreted the epidemiology and harm of calcific aortic valve stenosis (CAVS), the relationship between Lp(a) and CAVS, and the use of Lp(a) lowering therapy for CAVS management.
We are honored to invite a member of the Standing Committee of the Cardiovascular Medicine Branch of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, the former vice president, and the current Chinese Gerontology and Professor Liu Meilin, deputy director of the Cardiovascular Branch of the Geriatrics Society and director of the Department of Geriatrics, Peking University First Hospital, introduced the mechanism of Lp(a) promoting cardiovascular disease (CVD) in detail. , the latest evidence on Lp(a) and CVD and the latest progress in Lp(a) research such as Lp(a) and CVD management.
Summary of key points: ღ Lp(a) is a lipoprotein independently synthesized by the liver, and its level Primarily determined by genetic factors and not interfered by gender, age, diet, or external physical factors, it is normallow-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)levels The distribution differs, with Lp(a) levels being skewed in most populations, with most individuals (approximately 70%) having Lp(a) levels <30 mg/dl. (see the video below: 00:00-04:13)ღ Lp(a) Associated with an increased risk of atherosclerosis, inflammation, thrombosis, and aortic valve calcification. (see the video below: 04:14-8:21)
ღ Elevated Lp(a)levels are significantly associated with coronary heart disease and ischemic stroke,and poor prognosis in patients with myocardial infarction or ischemic stroke About.
(see the video below: 8:22-19:12)
ღ Elevated Lp(a) was significantly associated with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF); in addition, Lp(a) variability in patients with familial hypercholesterolemia was associated with major adverse cardiovascular events ( MACE) were significantly correlated.
(see the video below: 19:13-21:25)ღ Reducing Lp(a) is a CVD management strategy. Statins do not reduce Lp(a). Antisense oligonucleotides are the most potential new drugs to reduce Lp(a). (see the video below: 21:26-33:40)
