Effectiveness of cascade screening for elevated lipoprotein(a), an underdiagnosed family disorder.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW
Elevated lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is a prevalent, independent, genetic risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Though crucial for adequate risk assessment, detection of individuals at increased risk because of elevated Lp(a) is severely lacking in practice. In this light, several consensus statements have recommended familial cascade screening strategies to increase detection of elevated Lp(a). This review aims to synthesize findings from recent research into the effectiveness of cascade screening for elevated Lp(a).
RECENT FINDINGS
Cascade screening is an effective method for identifying individuals with elevated Lp(a) and is superior to opportunistic screening. Cascade screening identifies approximately one new case of elevated Lp(a) ≥ 125 nmol/L for every two first-degree relatives screened. The number needed to screen (NNS) ranged from 1.3 to 2.9, depending on Lp(a) threshold values and selected population.
SUMMARY
Cascade screening appears to be a promising strategy for identifying individuals with elevated Lp(a). However, several challenges persist regarding the implementation of this strategy in clinical practice. Deciding on threshold values for initiating cascade screening, considering the implications of ethnicity-related variability of Lp(a) levels, and further research into the clinical relevance of cascade screening are crucial steps. Understanding these factors will be essential for optimizing cascade screening protocols and enhancing its effectiveness in clinical practice.
