Change in Coronary Plaque Volumes on Repeat CCTA in Patients With High and Low Lp(a)

Lp(a) ≥70 mg/dL (n = 36) Lp (a) <70 mg/dL (n = 125) P Value
Total plaque volume change 128.2 ± 330.6 88.5 ± 312.2 0.508
Calcific plaque volume change 19.7 ± 69.7 1.0 ± 85.7 0.231
Noncalcific plaque volume change 108.5 ± 319.6 87.5 ± 288.6 0.708
Low-density plaque volume change 26.2 ± 88.4 -0.7 ± 50.1 0.020
Fibro-fatty volume change 55.0 ± 242.8 -25.0 ± 157.4 0.020

Values are mean ± SD of the absolute difference in plaque volume (mm3) between scan 1 and 2. Bold P values <0.05 show statistically significant differences.

CCTA = coronary computed tomography angiography; Lp(a) = lipoprotein(a).
