U.S., Jan. 9 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07324902) titled 'The Effect of Lipoprotein (a) on Arterial Stiffness, Endothelial Function and Myocardial Deformation' on Dec. 23, 2025.
Brief Summary: 1. Introduction Lipoprotein(a), or Lp(a), is a type of lipoprotein that is structurally similar to LDL (low-density lipoprotein) but carries an additional protein called apolipoprotein (a).
2. Purpose of the Study
The primary purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of Lp(a) levels on arterial stiffness, endothelial function, and left atrial (LA) and left ventricular (LV) deformation over a 12-month follow-up period.
Secondarily, the study will investigate:
* a) The incidence of major ad...
