Journal ArticleDOI

Lp(a) Lipoprotein Is an Independent, Discriminating Risk Factor for Premature Peripheral Atherosclerosis Among White Men

TL;DR: Lp(a) lipoprotein level is an independent, discriminating risk factor for premature PVD among white men.

Pretreatment biliary lipid composition in white patients with radiolucent gallstones in the National Cooperative Gallstone Study

Journal ArticleDOI
