Reporting from ESC 2024: Single Blood Test Could Predict Cardiovascular, Stroke Risk in Women for Up to 30 Years
A single blood test could predict cardiovascular for women for up to 3 decades, according to new research presented at the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Congress 2024.
The study, which leveraged high-sensitivity CRP (hsCRP), LDL cholesterol, and lipoprotein(a)[Lp(a)] levels to predict cardiovascular risk in more than 27,000 healthy women, found each biomarker was associated with independent contributions to cardiovascular risk, with the models using all 3 biomarkers proving the most valuable for risk stratification.
