Study Description
This study has the purpose to answer how the Lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) level is distributed among Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) patients in Russia, and what is the connection between elevated levels of this parameter and the cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. This study will consist of several phases (consecutive stages):
Phase I: a cross-sectional study of Lp(a) level with ASCVD patients
Phase II:
* A non-interventional, prospective, cohort study with the phase I patients
* A cross-sectional study of Lp(a) levels with relatives of phase I patients
* A non-interventional, prospective, cohort study with patients' relatives
