This retrospective study investigated whether baseline serum lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) may predict subsequent stroke in patients under chronic peritoneal dialysis (PD). Eight hundred and sixty incident PD patients, treated from 1 November 2005 to 28 February 2017, were enrolled, and followed until discontinuation of PD, death, or 31 May 2017. Hemorrhagic or ischemic stroke was the primary outcome. The population was stratified by baseline serum Lp(a) tertile. The risk of each stroke subtype was analyzed using the Cox proportional hazard models. Adjustments were made for: age; gender; history of stroke and hypertension; systolic blood pressure; lipid-lowering, antiplatelet and antihypertensive medications; laboratory profiles including hemoglobin, serum albumin, calcium, triglyceride, total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; and apolipoprotein A1. Among the 860 participants, 19.3% and 4.1% had diabetes mellitus and a history of stroke, respectively. The median baseline serum Lp(a) was 328 (172-585) mg/L. After 28 (14-41) months of follow-up, 33 (3.84%) and 12 (1.40%) patients developed hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke, respectively. Participants in the highest Lp(a) tertile had a significantly lower risk of hemorrhagic stroke compared with those in the lowest tertile (hazard ratio (HR) 0.3, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.1-0.86;  = .026); the rates of ischemic stroke were comparable among the tertiles. Each 10 mg/L rise in serum Lp(a) was associated with a 2% (95% CI 0.96-1;  = .033) lower risk of hemorrhagic stroke. Among patients with incident PD, a higher serum Lp(a) level may predict a lower risk of hemorrhagic stroke.
