High levels of lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) is an independent risk factor for premature coronary heart disease (PCHD). It is also considered a residual risk for controlled low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). Dietary control, exercise, and drugs have limited effects on the levels of Lp(a). Recently, mental health was found to be associated with lipid levels and increased risk of PCHD. However, the relationship between mental health and Lp(a) is still unknown. This study explored the association between mental health and Lp(a) levels in men with PCHD.
