PLA2G7 and coronary artery disorder: In light of the conflicting findings of previous studies, we conducted a cross-sectional and observational clinical study to investigate whether increased plasma level of Lp-PLA2 is independently associated with the severity of CAD, and we believe that the clinical implication of our study would add, if any, valuable information to address whether Lp-PLA2 could be used to predict CAD risk in the future.
