[PROVISIONAL] The rs10455872-G allele of the LPA gene is associated with high lipoprotein(a) levels and increased aortic valve calcium in a Mexican adult population

Abstract Polymorphisms in the LPA gene have been associated with aortic valve calcification (AVC). There are widely differences in the allelic frequencies, Lp(a) levels, and the association with AVC among ethnic groups. The aim of this study was to determine the association of the LPA gene polymorph...
