Lipoprotein-associated Phospholipase A2 is Associated with Angiographic Coronary Artery Disease and Coronary Artery Risk Factors in the Elderly

Background: This study investigated the correlation of lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) levels with angiographic coronary artery disease, the extent of angiographic coronary artery lesions and coronary artery disease risk factors in the elderly. Methods: Plasma Lp-PLA2, lipid, and h...
