Lipoprotein(a), or Lp(a), is a protein that transports cholesterol in the blood. High levels of Lp(a) in the blood can increase the likelihood of plaques or blood clots forming in the arteries.

This new perspective creates opportunities to innovatively address lipoprotein alterations and associated risks. The study was conducted as an observational cohort study at Sant Pau Hospital ...

A new study published in the Journal of American Medical Association showed that the innovative small interfering RNA (siRNA) ...
