Abstract
Introduction: Elevated levels of Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] have been linked to increased cardiovascular risk globally. However, comprehensive studies on Lp(a) levels and their impact on cardiovascular health in Argentina are lacking. The Argentine Group for the Study of Lipoprotein (a) [GAELp(a)] aims to address this gap through an observational study designed to evaluate the prevalence and consequences of elevated Lp(a) levels in the Argentine population.
Methods: The GAELp(a) study will recruit participants from diverse regions across Argentina. Eligible individuals will undergo comprehensive assessments, including demographic data collection, medical history review, and laboratory analyses to measure Lp(a) levels. The study will employ rigorous statistical analyses to explore the association between elevated Lp(a) levels and cardiovascular outcomes, considering potential confounding variables.
Results: Anticipated outcomes of the GAELp(a) study include a detailed characterization of Lp(a) levels within the Argentine population and their correlation with cardiovascular diseases. By elucidating these relationships, the study aims to provide valuable insights into the prevalence and impact of elevated Lp(a) on cardiovascular health in Argentina.
Conclusion: The GAELp(a) observational study holds promise for enhancing our understanding of Lp(a)-related cardiovascular risk in Argentina. Findings from this study may contribute to the development of targeted interventions, clinical guidelines, and public health policies aimed at reducing cardiovascular morbidity and mortality associated with elevated Lp(a) levels. Through collaborative efforts, the GAELp(a) study seeks to advance cardiovascular research and improve healthcare outcomes in Argentina.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
