Abstract

BACKGROUND AND AIM

Most but not all studies in children, adolescents and young adults with a family history of coronary artery disease have reported an increase in lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) concentrations. The aim of this study was to assess if healthy children, adolescents and young adults with a parental history of premature myocardial infarction (PHPMI) have increased Lp(a) levels and are at higher risk of elevated (>30 mg/dl) Lp(a) concentrations.

METHODS AND RESULTS

One hundred fifty healthy children, adolescents and young adults with PHPMI (55% males; age 18+/-6.7 years) and 150 age- (+/-1 year) and gender-matched control subjects participated in the study. Concentrations of total plasma cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol, high density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol, apolipoprotein (Apo) A-I and B, triglycerides and Lp(a) were determined after fasting for 14 h. Participants with PHPMI had higher concentrations of LDL-cholesterol (107.9+/-31.1 vs. 99.2+/-28.7 mg/dl, p=0.01), Apo B (89.6+/-26.4 vs. 82.8+/-20.2 mg/dl, p=0.011) and Lp(a) (26.7+/-34.0 vs. 19.2+/-23.2 mg/dl, p=0.012) and lower HDL-cholesterol concentrations (47.9+/-11.3 vs. 50.7+/-13.9 mg/dl, p=0.038) than participants without PHPMI. Thirty percent of PHPMI positive subjects had elevated Lp(a) concentrations vs. 16.7% of PHPMI negative subjects (p=0.009; relative risk 2.14; 95% CI 1.23-3.73). In a conditional logistic regression analysis, Lp(a) concentration was significantly and independently associated with PHPMI.

CONCLUSIONS

Healthy young subjects with PHPMI have increased Lp(a) levels, a higher risk for elevated Lp(a) concentrations within an unfavourable lipid profile.

摘要

背景与目的

大多数（但并非所有）针对有冠状动脉疾病家族史的儿童、青少年和年轻人的研究报告称脂蛋白(a)（Lp(a)）浓度有所升高。本研究的目的是评估有父母早发心肌梗死病史（PHPMI）的健康儿童、青少年和年轻人的Lp(a)水平是否升高，以及Lp(a)浓度升高（>30mg/dl）的风险是否更高。

方法与结果

150名有PHPMI的健康儿童、青少年和年轻人（55%为男性；年龄18±6.7岁）以及150名年龄（±1岁）和性别匹配的对照受试者参与了研究。在禁食14小时后测定总血浆胆固醇、低密度脂蛋白（LDL）胆固醇、高密度脂蛋白（HDL）胆固醇、载脂蛋白（Apo）A-I和B、甘油三酯以及Lp(a)的浓度。有PHPMI的参与者的LDL胆固醇（107.9±31.1 vs. 99.2±28.7mg/dl，p=0.01）、Apo B（89.6±26.4 vs. 82.8±20.2mg/dl，p=0.011）和Lp(a)（26.7±34.0 vs. 19.2±23.2mg/dl，p=0.012）浓度更高，而HDL胆固醇浓度更低（47.9±11.3 vs. 50.7±13.9mg/dl，p=0.038）。30%的PHPMI阳性受试者Lp(a)浓度升高，而PHPMI阴性受试者为16.7%（p=0.009；相对风险2.14；95%CI 1.23 - 3.73）。在条件逻辑回归分析中，Lp(a)浓度与PHPMI显著且独立相关。
