📣 New research on FIND Lp(a)® from the Family Heart Foundation is now published!
Published in @JACCJournals, the study demonstrates how machine learning could help identify and screen more people with high Lp(a). Individuals identified by the model were more than 2.2 times as likely to have high Lp(a) compared with the overall population of people with ASCVD in the test dataset.
High Lp(a) affects 1 in 5 people and often goes undetected because most people have never been screened. Targeted screening can help healthcare systems prioritize people who are more likely to have high Lp(a).
