Lipoprotein (a) level as a risk factor for stroke and its subtype: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Abstract The role of lipoprotein-A [Lp (a)] as a risk factor for stroke is less well documented than for coronary heart disease. Hence, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis for the published observational studies in order to investigate the association of Lp (a) levels with the risk of...
