📉 “Lp(a) is a Vascular Crystal Ball” 🚷🦿🛣️
Manage episode 497236420 series 2740117
🧬 Just dropped: our latest podcast episode 🎙️ dives into Lipoprotein(a) and its powerful role in predicting vascular disease beyond the heart 🫀—including PAD 🦵 and stroke 🧠.
📊 Based on a massive UK Biobank study (n=460K+), high Lp(a) levels (≥150 nmol/L) were linked to:
• 18% ↑ risk of PAD
• 17% ↑ risk of carotid stenosis
• 60% ↑ risk of major limb events
⚠️ Lp(a) is more than a lab value—it’s a Vascular Crystal Ball.
