摘要:
This invention relates to a method for assessing risk of Coronary Vascular Disease (CVD). Specifically, it relates to utilizing risk assessment from both Lipoprotein Associated Phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) and C-reactive protein (CRP) in combination. In addition the invention relates to a method for assessing risk of Coronary Vascular Disease (CVD) in a patient with low to normal Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL) levels utilizing both LDL and Lipoprotein Associated Phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2). Moreover, the invention relates to the use of risk associated with Lp-PLA2, CRP and LDL in combination and specific ranges thereof to predict Coronary Vascular Disease.
