Article Synopsis
- - The study examines how switching between two different lipoprotein(a) assays (Roche vs. Siemens) affects the identification of individuals at risk based on their Lp(a) levels.
- - Analyzing data from nearly 185,500 individuals, the Roche assay detected significantly more individuals with high Lp(a) levels compared to the Siemens assay, attributed to differences in calibration.
- - This transition to a new assay can lead to important changes in clinical decision-making, especially for those near critical Lp(a) thresholds.
