LPA and cancer: In this prospective study of middle-aged German men and women with more than 1600 cases of cancer and 1000 of CVD, and with almost 800 deaths caused by cancer and 400 by CVD, we found that all lipid biomarkers were associated with risk of MI, whereby TC, apoB-100, TG, and Lp(a) were positively and HLD-C and apo(a) inversely associated with risk, as expected.
