Enhanced Cardiac Risk

Cardiovascular disease remains a leading cause of premature mortality in Europe. Early identification of risk factors enables clinicians and patients to implement behavioural and therapeutic interventions that can reduce risk and promote healthier living. Emerging biomarkers, such as lipoprotein(a) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs CRP), offer valuable insights into subclinical cardiovascular risk.
