Impact of High Lipoprotein(a) on Long?Term Survival Following Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting

Journal of the American Heart Association

The distribution and prognostic implication of lipoprotein(a) in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting remain unknown. The primary outcome was all‐cause death. The secondary outcome was a composite of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events. During a median follow‐up of 3.2
