"[Three lines of evidence showed a significant effect of FH on Lp(a) levels: (1) Lp(a) values were significantly higher in FH individuals compared to non-FH relatives (p < 0.001), although the distribution of apo(a) alleles was not different in the two groups; (2) comparison of Lp(a) concentrations in 28 sib pairs, identical by descent (i.b.d.) at the apo(a) locus but non-identical for LDLR status, extracted from this large sample demonstrated significantly elevated Lp(a) concentrations in sibs with FH (p < 0.001); (3) single i.b.d. apo(a) alleles were associated with significantly higher Lp(a) concentrations (p < 0.0001) in FH than non-FH family members.].
