Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Sofia Abbolito"
Sofia Abbolito's research focuses on the relationship between lipoprotein(a) levels and coronary artery disease (CAD), particularly in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and obstructive CAD.
Her studies investigate the association of lipoprotein(a) with coronary atherosclerotic burden and the presence of vulnerable plaque phenotypes, such as lipid-rich plaques that are prone to rupture.
Additionally, Abbolito explores genetic factors, including the T2238C ANP gene variant, and their potential impact on the risk of recurrent acute coronary syndromes in patients with ischemic heart disease. *
