Arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease, NOS
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Major atherosclerotic cardiovascular event (MACE) prevention among the highest risk patients with ASCVD requires aggressive management of global risks, including lowering of the fundamental atherogenic apolipoprotein B-associated lipoprotein cholesterol particles [i.e., triglyceride-rich lipoprotein remnant cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and lipoprotein(a)]. 31754844 2019
Arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease, NOS
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Finally, in regard to lipoprotein(a)-which is a strong risk factor for ASCVD-there are exciting developments in the therapeutic pipeline which reduce circulating lipoprotein(a) levels by nearly 90%. 31378838 2019
Arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease, NOS
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) and elevated lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] are inherited disorders associated with premature atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). 30846097 2019

Arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease, NOS
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Oxidized phospholipids, which modify Lp(a) primarily by covalent binding to its unique apolipoprotein(a) (apo(a)) component, might hold the key to Lp(a) pathogenicity and provide a mechanistic link between ASCVD and CAVD. 30675027 2019
Arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease, NOS
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Although a major determinant of ASCVD event reduction is the absolute change of low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C), considerable residual risk remains and new therapeutic options are required, in particular, to address triglyceride-rich lipoproteins and lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)]. 31449975 2019
