LP(a) survey to identify the gap between recommendations and practice. Kindly follow the link and participate in this important survey.
Lp(a) is a cardiovascular risk factor that has gained significant traction in international guidelines over recent years.

Members of the global IAS team made the most of the trip to Madrid for @escardio's #ESCCongress and #WCCardio! There were pre-congress events including the #InflammationAcademy and #LetsRISE2025, participation in side events by partners like @fhpatienteurope , @worldheartfed and @EFPIA. There was an early morning recording session with @BoxBear and @Cleerlyhealth, evening social gatherings with longtime colleagues and new friends; coffee klatches, hallway meet ups and many fantastic scientific presentations. The largest cardiology congress in the world was truly one for the books! @mgearhart42, @lansberg
