Immunochemical quantification of human plasma Lp(a) lipoprotein

Albers, John J., Hazzard, William R.·1974·Lipids

Abstract

The Lp(a) lipoprotein was purified from human plasma by ultracentrifugation and gel filtration on 6% agarose. It contained 27% protein, 65% lipid, and 8% carbohydrate. Quantification of the Lp(a) lipoprotein was performed by radial immunodiffusion. Both within‐assay and between‐assay coefficients of variation were inversely concentration dependent, decreasing from 20% and 27%, respectively, at 3 mg/100 ml to 7% and 12%, respectively, at concentrations above 8 mg/100 ml. The lower limit of sensitivity of the assay was 1.5 mg/100 ml. Of 340 unrelated fasting subjects tested, 81% had levels of the Lp(a) lipoprotein exceeding this lower limit. The distribution of Lp(a) concentrations in this population was skewed with a mean of 14 mg/100 ml and a median of 8 mg/100 ml. Lp(a) lipoprotein was not significantly correlated with age, sex, or cholesterol or glyceride concentrations.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
