Background

This study investigated the associations between lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) and the risks of coronary heart disease (CHD) and ischemic stroke (IS) in the general population.

Methods

PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library databases were searched for prospective cohort studies published prior to June 2016. Multivariate-adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for CHD and IS risks according to Lp-PLA2 activity or mass were extracted, pooled, and weighted using random-effects modeling.

Results

Twelve studies examining Lp-PLA2 activity or mass and long-term risks of CHD and IS were included. Combined HRs for CHD and IS risks for the highest category referring to lowest category of Lp-PLA2 were 1.46 (95% CI: 1.20-1.78, P<0.001) and 1.58 (95% CI: 1.21-2.07, P=0.001), respectively. The same patterns were observed for both mass and activity, with the exception of those for CHD. For every 1-standard deviation (SD) increase in Lp-PLA2 activity, CHD risk increased by 12% (HR: 1.12, 95% CI: 1.05-1.22, P=0.002); no association between 1-SD increases in Lp-PLA2 activity and IS was observed. Lp-PLA2 mass was associated with CHD risk (HR: 1.02-1.24, 95% CI: 1.02-1.24, P=0.021). Lp-PLA2 mass per 1-SD increase was not associated with IS risk.

Conclusions

Greater Lp-PLA2 activity or mass was associated with an increased risk of CHD and IS; however, additional well-designed trials are warranted to confirm this association."xsd:string
