LPA and metabolic syndrome: Individuals with elevated Lp(a) had slightly lower unawareness (M: 42.3% vs. 47.5%, p = 0.180, W: 38.8% vs.48.4%, p = 0.042) and better treatment (M: 38.1% vs. 31.7%, p = 0.010, W: 29.2% vs. 24.7%, p = 0.090) of dyslipidemia than those with lower levels while no association was found between Lp(a) and dyslipidemia control (M: 81.4% vs. 84.1%, p = 0.520, W: 74.6% vs. 73.0%, p = 0.740).<h4>Conclusions</h4>Approximately one in ten Finnish adults had elevated Lp(a), a lower prevalence than in many other European populations but still affecting a substantial share of the population.
