U.S., Sept. 20 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07184034) titled 'Lipoprotein a Assessment and Relation to Ca Score in CAD Patients Using MSCT' on Sept. 13.
Brief Summary: The goal of this observational study is to evaluate whether serum Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] levels are associated with coronary artery calcium (CAC) score measured by multi-slice computed tomography (MSCT) in adults undergoing cardiac risk assessment.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Is there a correlation between elevated Lp(a) levels and higher CAC scores?
* Does Lp(a) provide additional predictive value for subclinical atherosclerosis beyond traditional cardiovascular risk factors?
Participants will:
* Undergo a...
