Abstract
Objective— To determine the prognostic utility of lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) for specific adverse cardiovascular outcomes in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD... In 3766 patients with stable CAD, an elevated level of Lp-PLA2 was a significant predictor of adverse cardiovascular outcomes independent of traditional clinical risk factors. When analyzed togethe...Keywords
