Can Lp(a) become the next A1C? A case for digital health management tools to overcome inertia to Lipoprotein (a) testing.
Article in Frontiers in cardiovascular medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Despite its known correlations with risk of cardiovascular disease, awareness and testing for Lipoprotein (a) lags that of other serological markers with estimates that less than 1% of the US population have undergone screening. Herein we outline how digital tools framed around motivational models (COM-B and SEM), might help increase likelihood of patients seeking Lp(a) testing as part of their managed care. Furthermore, we highlight how recent trends in prescription of GLP-1 receptor antagonists are serving to motivate patients to manage biomarkers related to T2D and obesity, which are also relevant in cardiovascular disease. Capitalizing on this trend to stimulate interest in Lp(a) management could have near term consequence, and with disease modifying therapies in development ultimately improve outcomes in cardiovascular disease.
