We test this routinely UChicago Medicine for high-risk patients with stroke and have found HALF of tested patient have Lp(a) > 75 mg/dL. Much higher prevalence than the 20% reported elsewhere. Prognostically useful AND soon treatable! (Current PCSK9i also can reduce levels FYI)

It is my TENTH year riding for Bike MS and second year as captain for The University of Chicago’s Tour de Farms team. Help us to raise money for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society — donate today! do.nr/nbj0o408 via DonorDrive
