Lipoprotein(a) in an adult sample from the Russian population: distribution and association with atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Introduction: Lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) is recognized as an independent risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). The aim of this study was to estimate the distribution of Lp(a) levels in working age adults from the Russian population and to assess its association with ischemic heart disease (IHD), myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, diabetes mellitus (DM), and arterial hypertension (AH). Material and methods: This substudy of the population-based study "Epidemiology of Cardiovascular Diseases and their Risk Factors in Some Regions of the Russian Federation" (ESSE-RF) included 8461 subjects aged 25-64 years (63.7% women) without lipid-lowering drugs. Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease was self-reported. Lp(a), apolipoproteins AI and B, and lipid and glucose levels in blood serum were determined. Results: The prevalence of Lp(a) ≥ 30 mg/dl was 20.5% and 23.0%, and prevalence of Lp(a) ≥ 50 mg/dl was 13.3% and 15.2%, in men and women, respectively. An association of Lp(a) with IHD, MI, and AH, but not with stroke and DM, was shown. A cut-off level of Lp(a) of 9 mg/dl was determined, above which there was increased frequency of MI (by 59.2%, Conclusions: Lipoprotein(a) level ≥ 30 mg/dl was detected in every fifth adult aged 25-64 years. Increased risk of MI and IHD starts at an Lp(a) serum level above 9 mg/dl.
